Your content garb, sounds better as a logline to me.
I think you may have mixed around the logline and content grab text boxes.
From the content grab it sounds like he is an anti hero MC first big hurdle for empathy there.
A few questions to help clear up the logline:
What is the main action?
What is the POV of the story? – His digging the tunnel? Or his getting a companion? Or his avoiding persecution for the disappearance of his wife?
Oops! Yes mixed up the boxes.
Driving force is for him to find his wife. Part of that is to overcome his agoraphobia which is why he needs to build the tunnel, to take him that further step to joining society.
The automated companion is the catalyst that helps him open up to the world and the truth about the disappearance of his wife.
I see but it doesn’t come across that way in the logline.
Perhaps define his goal to be finding his wife then the obstacle, before a new version of the logline?
Sounds like the automated companion is more of a Scifi add on than an integral part of the story.
Nir.
The relationship with the automated companion is what brings Doug to final get to the truth. It is the catalyst needed where previously he had been held back by his mental frailties.
