Synopsis

Aish, a young woman from Baghdad, has lived her life under the watchful eyes of her strict parents. Bound by her deep faith and cultural traditions, she dreams of a world beyond her confines—a life where she can explore her independence. When she finally gets an opportunity to work abroad, her desire for freedom comes true, but it also brings unforeseen challenges.

In a new country, Aish crosses paths with Ferah, a wealthy, carefree playboy from Turkey, who seemingly has it all but hides a wounded soul. Unlike Aish, Ferah shuns the idea of religion and commitment, believing they only bring pain. Their initial encounters are fraught with clashes as their opposing lifestyles and beliefs collide.

As fate intertwines their lives, an unexpected connection grows between them. Aish's resilience and strong moral compass challenge Ferah’s cynical worldview, while his openness and hidden vulnerabilities make her question her fears of love and trust. Together, they navigate personal struggles, cultural differences, and the ghosts of their pasts.

But can two people from such different worlds overcome their insecurities and fears to find solace in each other? Or will their differences keep them apart? "How Come We End Up Together?" is a heartfelt story of love, self-discovery, and the power of connection.

Thank you Soo much Tony Ray

Rutger Oosterhoff

Strong BEGINNING, now you need a clear, beat by beat storyline. This is just a setup where in a cool way you describe how their different background and characters mingle. It's the emotional layer that wraps around the real storyline.

This could be under the header" The emotional connection/relation(ship)/character grows of the two protagonists." Something like that. And after that (or before that,) you have the synopsis. And you integrate the EMOTIONAL LAYER, fitting through word choice, in a few lines here and there, throughout the synopsis.

You can post this under the title of your screenplay/under the LOGLINE (you have to come up with now.

It's funny, what the synopsis of one of my screenplays lacks, is already your strongpoint. Even without a clear storyline we are already emotionally invested in your story. Good job!

Michael Dzurak

I agree with Rutger Oosterhoff, this is a good setup but the synopsis needs to still be fleshed out. Sounds like an interesting story, they're drawn and repelled from each other, so which part will win.. and how? I look forward to any revisions that you make.

Maurice Vaughan

This sounds like a unique Romance Drama, Ayesha Khan. I agree with Rutger and Michael about fleshing out your synopsis more.

"When she finally gets an opportunity to work abroad, her desire for freedom comes true, but it also brings unforeseen challenges." You could explain what the challenges are.

I think you should tell how the story ends in the last paragraph of your synopsis instead of asking questions.
