      Edit – When his daughter?s rape-homicide case turns cold, a child psychologist gradually befriends a rehabbing pedophile (the prime suspect) to solicit his trust–then a confession.

      A minor edit towards the end there, but I thought it may add some umph to it, ya know? Dramatic effect.

      I don’t know, I feel like the inciting incident is a bit off. ?I don’t think a case going cold brings about the immediacy an inciting incident should. Maybe try have the father find something that leads him to believe that it was the pedophile. Or even just have it be the police unable to investigate, whether it’s refusal or lack of evidence.

      Example: When he finds a lead in the cold case of his daughter’s rape-homicide, a child psychologist must befriend a rehabbing pedophile to solicit his trust-and a confession.?(~27 words)
      or something like:
      When the police refuse to investigate the rape-homicide of his daughter, a child psychologist must befriend a rehabbing pedophile, the prime suspect, in order to solicit his trust-and a confession. (30)

      I suggest possibly describing?the MC as obsessive.

      This raised more questions than curiosity.
      What is a rehabbing pedophile? Is there such a program? Is he in jail? Out of jail? In a mental institute??Is he befriending or (more likely) is he faking friendship with the pedophile?

      Lastly, what’s going to happen throughout the film? What is the action that the MC takes? Is the film going to be about the MC going on long walks in the park, having a beer or playing golf with the pedophile?
      The frase “?gradually befriends?” can mean so many things, but what will it mean on the screen in practical terms? I think the plot is rather thin for a full length feature film.

      Recluse’s polish is an improvement.

      But why would a pedophile engage in rehab with the father of his victim? ?Or ever confess?
