It’s 2151 and a bio scientist finds herself in the middle of the largest coverup in history. She begins a race against time to expose her former CEO?s deceit or else mankind changes forever.
To follow up on my reply I realized that the land deal is not the inciting incident so I tried again on the logline with this: It?s 2151 and when a timid bio scientist finds her co worker dead, she races against time and for her life to expose her company?s CEO?s true intent to create the first artiRead more

It’s inspired by the real setting, The POW camp in Aliceville, Alabama and some of the events I am using that actually happened but the overall story is fictional. Like the movie Titanic, fictional love story set in a factual event.
How does this work:

Thanks for the feedback. To answer some questions:
Her ultimate goal is to be able to be with the German prisoner in which she has ?fallen in love. However, it cannot happen openly in the small southern Alabama town unless she is able to change the prejudices in some of the townspeople. When word gets out that she has a relationship with the Nazi POW the town becomes sharply divided and there is an outcry for this and the other events happening around town in which the POW soldiers have been able to participate and somewhat assimilate into the small town.
You are correct DPG, most people do not realize that there were Nazi POW camps in all lower 48 states except Vermont. Aliceville, Alabama had one of the largest and this is where the story takes place. The year of the story is 1944 so it is right after D-day. The small Alabama town is mostly white with about 20% African American residents. The objective goal for the two lovers are somewhat divided in the beginning. Here is where you could make a case for the dual protagonist option (which I have thought of and somewhat began writing into the script) because the farmer’s daughter wants to remain in the Alabama town to marry and live but the soldier doesn’t believe that to be possible. So their objective goal was to somehow keep it a secret until the war was over when, then, hopefully the POW’s would be free and they could marry.
When I looked at other loglines from period films they rarely stated the dates but used adjectives for their characters to emphasize the place and time. Should this story be an exception given the lack of knowledge about the setting?
