A logline is a *short* statement about the plot. That is, a character’s struggle to acheive *specific*, *concrete* goal. This logline hints action having to do with fulfilling a promise — but we haven’t a clue what the promise is. We don’t know what *specifically* is her objective goal. And not knowing what the goal is we don’t know whether it might be worth a producer’s time to read the script, worth a director’s time to make the movie, worth an audience’s time to watch it.
