IMMORTALITY

Gwenhyver Davies

Supernatural Drama




Synopsis 
When Seventeen year old Alex dies suddenly and without explanation, her boyfriend Toby is left bewildered. With the realization that the deadline of death may happen sooner rather than later, Toby questions the point of life.

Alex's presence lingers to tease him, to taunt him, to help him in the search for answers. He reasons the point of life is to defy death, to screw the deadline. The question is how. With physical immortality beyond possibility, Toby examines the idea of immortality through fame. The problem is: how can you be famous when you're so average?

As his memory of Alex fades, Toby becomes more and more determined to make his mark. Hurt and abandoned, to spite Alex, Toby pursues the path of genetic immortality – quite literally screwing the deadline.

With Toby at an all time low and his desperation at its height, he contemplates a school shooting. Will he accept his potential mortality? Or be forever immortalized in newspaper print by sacrificing innocent lives to gain fame?
