You need to imply who is the protagonist, their goal, who is the antagonist and what the story is about. Eg As racial tensions in Cronulla develop into a fight, Joe tries to organise his troops, stay alive and not to beat up his fiance’s brother who is the leader of the opposing gang. No exactly a great logline or anything that relates to your story but an example of how one could incorporate the elements and indicate what type of film it is.
Smething odd about the word “comedy” in the same sentence as “racisim” and “riots”, but if Brooks can do a Nazi musical, I guess anything’s possible.
As a logline, it’s missing most of the elements, except of course, the genre, which was clearly stated (unnecessarily so). No sense of protagonist, antagonist, goal, obstacles, stakes, etc. Basically, just a TV guide entry.
The writer needs to learn the basics of a logline, and the Australian Film Project board, or whomever is funding this stuff, needs to improve their standards a bit. If the logline is this bad, I cannot imagine what the script is like.
Geno Scala- judge.
Both comments are valid. Nothing else needs to be said.
