Suggested title: ?The Killer App
Notes:
I suggest using the term “app”, not software, not program, not ?equation. ?Something she downloads on her smart phone.
I changed the protagonist to a female in my periodic pitch for more starring roles for women. ?And because if you change the stakes to her infant — well, imho, that makes for an even more compelling film because now the stakes are higher; the stakes character is more helpless, vulnerable, more an innocent victim. ?And everyone can identify with and root for motherhood, the desire to protect one’s offspring.
?I think having a female protagonist + infant as the stakes character will enhance the appeal to the female demographic.
