Final Draft of Synopsis

An autumn morning, in a large common room. A few sixth formers lounge around on sofas and chairs. Shane, late teens dressed in dark jeans, a stripy scarf and a deep blue jumper, is sitting with some friends. The group of friends are dressed similar to Shane with jeans and shirts. They ask Shane if he wants to go to the café with them. Shane refuses implying that he has work to do. They confront him telling him that he is boring and doesn’t socialise with them any more. Shane insists that he does have work to do and that maybe they could go another day. His friends walk off to go the café leaving Shane sitting there. A moment passes by as other students gather in the common room. He gets up, walks outside the common room, as he passes a double door he stops. A small year 7 boy is being bullied by some older boys on the piazza. Shane continues to walk along the corridor and up the stairs and through the doors at the top. As he walks through the doors at the end of the corridor he gazes around at the people and through some shrubbery he once again notices the young boy being bullied by older boys. The group of older boys have short ties and their shirts un-tucked form their trousers. The small year 7 boy is smart dressed with a full tie and jumper and black trousers. Still hidden by the shrubbery, Shane freezes as he hears threats by the older boys. As he continues to listen new voices delivering even more violent threats fill his ears. He watches on in distress focusing mainly on the older boys. He slowly edges forward towards the bullies, mumbling something underneath his breath. The smaller boy keeps looking at Shane, whilst backing away into the distance. The older boys’ attention is drawn to Shane, as he approaches them. The group start walking towards Shane shouting questions in an aggressive manor. Shane’s response is in the defence of the small boy. The boys move closer to Shane. Other students begin to gather around the argument to watch. The group of boys are now really close to Shane who asks them to stop bulling someone who is younger than them; they refuse. Face to face within inches of Shane, they shout at him to move out the way. Shane stands his ground. The boys start pushing him whilst shouting out him to move. Shane turns as if to walk away… there’s a moment’s pause and then he turns back and hits the leader of the group. Everyone around looks on in shock, whilst Shane stands there and looks at the boy on the ground and then up to the younger year 7 boy. Shane walks away.
