Best to read up on the definition of a logline on the "write it" page here: https://loglines.org/howto/
Think of it as the (pardon the analogy) most well reduced sauce of your story, any further reduction will result in burning it.
The point of a Logline is to outline the main character (MC) their over arching action throughout the plot, the main obstacles and the main antagonist (AN). Only the absolutely crucial detail should be included so a reader can understand what you story is about (genre, character and type of main struggle) and judge whether or not they want to pick it up and read the script or synopsis.
I often use a logline to help shape the bare essentials of a story and get rid of redundant characters, action and events during writing.
Hope this helps, Nir.

This, is not a logline. This is the text crawling at the opening of the movie. You know, like Star Wars.
A logline is, in essence, a short summary of the film. What you've got here is all backstory.
Boil it down to the core of the story:
"When [insert event] happens, [Your hero] must [take a course of action]."
Hope that helps =)
