Detailed Description of the Storyline

Genre: Thriller

Description: A woman wakes up every morning distressed due to nightmares. As weeks pass she begins to see her cousin, who she believes is haunting her, for example when she goes shopping. Then at the end of the film there is a twist, it turns out that her family member isn't the one who is dead but in fact, it is herself. She is just simply observing the lives of her loved ones.

The film will start with numerous elliptical edits, showing days passing as she has bad dreams over and over again (the camera will pan over her diary, revealing her name which is part of revealing the ending). This will result in seeing her extremely distressed more and more as it continues. As more time passes, the sights of the family member becomes more vivid as she sees what happened to the family member (however it's actually what happened to her) in more and more detail. This continues for a while until the revelation of how she was murdered is shown through a vision. The women will be stabbed as the onlooker (who is actually the girl but the girl thinks it's her family member) watches, this will be shot so the identities are not revealed, maintaining the mystery and confusion for the ending revelation. As the women see's her more and more, she is also being ignored by everyone else and so believes that she is going crazy. This is portrayed as the women listens in to their conversations, she is not actually involved in them. The women then hears the family member talking to her repeating her name and talking about the murder in her bedroom. The family member is actually just trying to find peace by talking to something of hers and saying "I miss you" in her bedroom. At the end, the family member is shown stood at the girl’s grave mourning her, the grave stone shows her name and a picture of her, revealing to the girl and the audience that she is the one who's actually dead and her family member was the one watching.
