The document discusses plans for the opening sequence of a psychological thriller film project. It will depict a schizophrenic girl who is struggling with drug addiction and is being stalked by her former drug dealer. The sequence will use film techniques like point of view shots, zooms, and heavy breathing to build tension and convey the girl's paranoid state of mind. Music and altered sound effects will also be used to symbolize her schizophrenia. The sequence aims to challenge stereotypes often portrayed in media through its characterization of the two main characters, a vulnerable girl and a delinquent boy.
