possible death. A typical characteristic of the thriller genre that our target audience will appreciate

Our trailer will contain elements of mystery that are so typical of the genre. This may take some time to be solved by the protagonist

The narrative is firmly dominated by the protagonist’s point of view.

There is a clear sense of pursuit throughout. In our film, the protagonist is pursuing his lost friend.
