      This sounds promising, but also unintentionally narrow. If I weren’t to assume anything else about this story, I could tell it in about five pages: A woman is upset about something (that will be addressed later – carefully, to avoid blatant exposition), and turns to her family for comfort. Her father’s financial and legal issues (coincidentally) collide with her own when the police come to issue a warrant, and recognize her as the person of interest in another case. Panicked, she resists arrest (could be a fun “fight” scene), and either flees, is captured and arrested, or tragically killed in the scuffle.

      Is this the entire story, or just up to the inciting incident?
      Whether a short or a feature, what is her ultimate goal, and how is she meant to achieve it?

      I hope to read your next logline draft.

        I wish I could simply edit my previous post.
        What I want to change is this: “…what is her ultimate goal, and how is she meant to achieve it?” are not questions for which you owe answers to me or to anyone else at this stage. At most, you owe it to yourself. How that should read, more simply, is “for your next draft, consider what her ultimate goal is, and how she is meant to achieve it.”

          Thank you very much for this feedback! This logline was the result of an attempt to rewrite an incredibly convoluted script with too many characters, I therefore went back, removed all the poetic suggestions and wrote a barebones sentence choosing who I though was the protagonist at the core.

          I can see how it may read as a brief of the first ten pages…now, I greatly appreciate the time you took to write this, in return I will be sharing a counter proposal very soon!

          Warmest regards
