I like the outline; there’s enough conflict for a short film ..whose story is it? Depends on the Inciting Incident. Is it about the son who must (action) shoot a man to (goal) protect his mother?, or is it about the mother who must (action) stand against her rapist to (goal) redeem her dignity? Personally, It seems to say more if you go with the mother. Choose one.
