Feedback from Mike

Today Mike, one of our teachers reviewed our idea and gave us some pointers on it. He said that we have to be more realistic with our idea because in human trafficking the deal with money usually happens before the trade, making our test shoot unrealistic and glamourised. Therefore we have to create more tension in this sequence by making it based in a cargo container, where 4 girls will be, waiting for their fate.
There will be Russian dialogue from outside the container, which will not make sense to the girls or the audience, creating suspense. A girl is taken out of the container by a big man, screaming and crying. There is intense suspense to what happens next here, with heavy breathing and sobbing. Then a big, Russian man comes in to get another girl, and 2 girls cower and go to the back of the container, meanwhile the main character stays put and in front of the other girls. She lunges towards the man and pulls out a pocket knife. The sequence ends with her leading him out and into the light of outside the container.
