2. PLOT SYNOPSIS
• Bloodline is action film which resolves around a small
family living in South London. The Plot explores the
extreme lengths that two sisters, Amber and Taylor have
to go through in order to save the life of their father Paul.
Unintentionally, the two girls are left with the pressure
and responsibility to return a valuable memory stick to a
notorious gang leader of the south London area. The data
on this memory stick is worth a lot more than the health
and safety of Amber, Taylor and Paul, as far as the gang
leader is concerned. As well as being under strict time
conditions, the girls are faced with many obstacles, trials
and dead ends. The movie reveals how family
values, loyalty and personality traits are tested.
