THE SHIP BEARING THE SUN

THE SHIP BEARING THE SUN
By Koby Nguyen

GENRE: Drama, Military/War
LOGLINE: In a world scorched by six months of blinding daylight and six months of night, colossal ships sail across a desert carrying the last reserves of water and a blazing solar weapon. As rebellion brews, the ruling elite would rather unleash destruction than surrender power, turning survival itself into a silent tragedy of light, sacrifice, and lost humanity.

SYNOPSIS:

In a desolate and fractured future, humanity drifts between endless drought and burning sun. Across the desert, monumental vessels, part ark, part war machine, transport the final reserves of water, guarded by a tyrannical elite who wield the sun itself as a weapon. Onboard one such ship, the nameless Rebellion rises: women, men, and children fighting not only for survival, but for dignity stolen long ago. As the vessels advance across sand and shadow, light becomes both salvation and curse: a tool of control, an object of worship, and the fire of revolt. The ruling class, grotesque and theatrical in their power, would rather annihilate the water, and themselves, than lose their dominion. Through static frames, silence, and black-and-white tableaux of despair and resistance, the film paints a haunting allegory of injustice and sacrifice. Women cry in silence, children stare into the void, and the desert becomes both tomb and witness. When the final storm passes, nothing remains—except the fragile breath of life: a sprout of grass, a faint line of moss, two pale flowers trembling in the wind. A brutal, poetic odyssey where spectacle is rejected, where silence speaks louder than war, and where hope flickers only in the persistence of nature.

Unique concept, Koby Nguyen! I think "the ruling elite would rather burn everything than lose control" is vague. I suggest changing that to the protagonist and his/her goal in the story.
