    I believe this idea has real promise although it wouldn't be they typical A to B to C type movie and that makes the logline a little bit harder to achieve.

    Here's just the concept, not an actual logline What if currency never existed ? but instead we had to trade memory's ? Our whole life's are basically memory's, we never live in the present. So what if, in the future, all of society traded in run down memory's, stored in banks. The higher class members of society are ridden with memory's. Then you have the lower class people, left to rot on the street with no memory's what so ever. There is a corrupt government which steals taxes of memory from you every month, and if you run out of memory's, you are taken in to cell 5, also known as shutdown to be 'rehabilitated'. If you want a loaf of bread that would cost you a mere memory of the last 5 minute road trip, new Aston martin ? that could cost you up to a months worth of memory's, even more. Many of you may look at this concept and think ''what a load of shit'' but it's still early days, as i'v only just started developing it. Any constructive criticism will be great !

    This idea is a little tricky because at first glance it seems like the movie "In Time" but you are using memories as currency instead of time. However that doesn't mean the idea can't work.

    This idea is a little tricky because at first glance it seems like the movie “In Time” but you are using memories as currency instead of time.

    However that doesn’t mean the idea can’t work. Look at Armageddon and Deep Impact.

    I do like the idea of being able to trade memories but the question is, why does the person who gives the memory lose it? Instead of having memories as currency you could just use the idea that you could sell your memories for money or trade your memories for other peoples memories.

    Maybe there’s a guy who’s had sex with a famous actress and is trading the memory to people for their memories. However he discovers the memory of a girl being murdered. He doesn’t know who sent him that memory, (Because the person used a fake name) now he has to find out who the killer is.

    Just an idea.

    When the gifted young father of a dying child becomes cognitively bound to a stranger with unique abilities, they must race against time to rescue his daughter from the hands of a sinister agency.

    How about this one: "When his daughter is kidnapped by a sinister agency, a gifted father incorporates the help of a stranger, to whom he shares a psychic link, in order to rescue her." (Not sure if "To Whom" is correct, in my attempt) ------- 1) I used psychic link instead of cognitively bound becaRead more

    How about this one:

    (Not sure if “To Whom” is correct, in my attempt)
    ——-

    1) I used psychic link instead of cognitively bound because, cognitively bound is an odd phrasing and took me a couple reads to understand what you meant.

    2) I took out “Dying child” because I was expecting you to say, they must race against time in order to find a cure, then all of a sudden we find ‘being kidnapped’ is the main conflict not the disease. Sticking with one conflict in the logline helps keep the goal clear. (Keep it in the story just not the logline)

    3) “Unique abilities” is vague and I took it out because being cognitively bound is a “unique ability,” therefore, saying the stranger has a “unique abilities” is redundant.

    Hope that helped, good luck with this!
