Please only pitch if you will be ready to submit four more completed feature scripts upon request, but please also note that we only want to review one pitch/submission at first.

Company E
**
We are looking for completed feature-length high-concept action scripts. This is to be for a specific actor and we are only looking for material that is ready to go. And by “ready to go,” we mean it should have a clear story objective and a strong 3-act structure. Please only submit if you’ve already re-written the script at least once. We are not interested in first or rough drafts. We prefer submissions that were developed with a professional coverage service, agent or manager. When pitching, please include coverage notes or details about your rep in the resume space provided.
Please note that a high concept script should have 4 key elements: A great title, a fascinating subject, a very strong hook and an appeal to a broad audience. In addition to these four elements, if your story cannot be described in one short simple sentence, it is not high concept.
Budget will not exceed $8 million. WGA and non-WGA writers may submit.

FALSE PARADISE
BY
MBAH FERDINAND
SYNOPSIS:
False Paradise is the true life story of a young Cameroonian faced with the prospects of frustration in fulfilling his dream of becoming a football star, of taking care of his family, and of marrying the girl he loves, Evelyn, because of the devastating economic situation of his country, Cameroon that has caused many youths to flee the country. Inspired by the popular propaganda of a European paradise on earth, he sees the fulfillment of his dreams in Europe. He embarks on the popular route to Europe through the vast expanse of the Sahara desert, the Mediterranean sea and the Atlantic Ocean, exposing him to all sorts of unprecedented Human and natural dangers, and even the risk of losing his life. However, when his strong volition and steadfastness finally take him to Europe, he discovers to his chagrin that the popular propaganda of a European paradise on earth is false— especially for a black man, and that he has actually left the true paradise on earth back at home in Cameroon!

- LEVEL 999
-SITUATION AND CONDITION
For years I wanted to work in film or tv…when I was a kid, I wanted to be an actor one week, a director the next, and spent a lot of my adult life dreaming that someone out there would want to read some of my screenplays, books, or treatments that I had poured out…I’ve even made several long bus trips out to Hollywood hoping to be discovered…more often than not, I spent the time getting drunk on $10 beer at the snow white cafe on Hollywood blvd…I’m back home in Florida, living in a small apt and realizing that the real reason I never made it was because life kept getting in the way and at 45, I’ve resigned myself that my work, just isn’t very good…the ideas may be, but I just don’t have the talent…then the other day a friend told me that the real talent I possess…is my life…that maybe someone would be inspired or something…I won’t get into too many specifics, because I am sure your lawyers will just send me some nasty grams…but I will tell you this…I lost my father to Vietnam…I lost my family to a drunk driver…I lost my freedom in a faraway desert where as a POW I was tortured, beaten, and had things done to me that most men have nightmares for years…I lost the use of my legs for almost two years…the Army gave me medals and then hushed me under a rug of shame, when it had become evident that I had lost my mind…I lost my soul in a 15-year run of alcohol induced homelessness…I’ve spent years in prison, forgotten glimmers of several mental wards…I’ve slept in streets, slept with hookers unprotected, stolen food and broken hearts…I’ve been sober coming up on 2 years now, got my ass back in college…and even though I know that I’ll never have a star on the walk of fame…I’ve walked in unwanted shoes fot too long…and I spend my days judging my success not by the things I’ve lost…but by the things I’ve had to give up in order to achieve it…is there a movie there?
