Within
Within
Within is the first script that I wrote and published
Within, is very personal to me as it came about from a nightmare that I had after my Father had his second stroke, and eventually passed away.
When her father has a second stroke, Alex makes a desperate plea for a miracle, and says "I would do anything" in a time of despair not knowing if or who will answer her prayers, or the danger it will bring, until it is too late.
Within Synopsis:
Up and coming marketing/advertising representative Alex Armstrong finds her world turned upside down when her father falls ill due to a devastating stroke that leaves him on the brink of death. As if this was not daunting enough news, Alex finds herself sharing chance encounters with David, the outwardly handsome but intense neighbor living in the apartment directly across from hers. However, David is not all that he appears to be and harbors nefarious intentions.
As time progresses and her father’s condition takes a turn for the worst, Alex finds herself suddenly blessed by Lady Luck when she lands a major international account and, consequently, a prestigious promotion. The floodgates barring the fortuitous events explode with a new, stunning revelation: her father has made a miraculous recovery against all fatal odds. For the first time in a while, Alex feels the hope that her life can finally resume a normal path.
Life, as it would seem, was finally beginning to look up.
Alas, Alex comes to the hastily realization that dark forces beyond her control have been set into motion when two of her friends turn up gruesomely murdered. With growing suspicion of Alex’s innocence in relation to the murders, the police and outsiders start to question her. All too quickly, the seemingly perfect reality of the past few days has started to crumble before her very eyes.
Plagued by horrific nightmares, Alex finds herself spiraling into a veritable hell, questioning the intentions of the people she assumed were on her side. For, the road to Hell is paved with good intentions.
