      I always first look at your protagonist. He’s a psychiatrist, but what is interesting about him? Typically I would like to see a character flaw that needs overcoming in the course of the story.

      Because you say he saves his life, perhaps at the beginning of the story he doesn’t genuinely care for his patients, because he is jaded and doesn’t believe in his job. I know, I’m making things up here, only to give an example. Perhaps the psychiatrist himself hasn’t fully let go of the experience and this is what he will be working through in the course of the movie (See GOOD WILL HUNTING).

      In terms of what to expect of this movie, “risks his life” seems to refer to only a short moment in the movie, i.e. the climax. What is the psychiatrist trying to achieve before it gets to that point? Find the rapist? Keep him away from the patient? We need to be able to envisage something significant so it can sustain Act Two.

      Finally, I’m a sucker for good inciting incidents. What sets the story in motion? If it’s a strong scene, include it in the logline. It will get your audience AND the reader’s interest.

      Ok so how about this then:

      An emotionally troubled psyciatrist must risk his life in order to
      save his abused female patient from the man who molested him years ago.
