ME THE PEOPLE AKA US CITIZENS AKA THE POWERLESS

ME THE PEOPLE AKA US CITIZENS AKA THE POWERLESS
By Gary Keyes

GENRE: Thriller, Independent
LOGLINE:

The story unfolds about a local town legislation held hostage by ‘tweens’ with automatic rifles and explosives. Due to the sensitive nature of the subject matter, it will be a very dark comedy of sorts.  The kids come from a swath of along the socio-economic spectrum. After another mass school shooting, the kids don’t post or communicate using the web, they meet in person, use dumb NRA members to get them into shooting clubs (or something along those lines), and even join a “Kid’s Militia” to train how to use weapons, everything else they study for sites like YouTube. The idea of holding local politicians hostage came from a movie they saw on cable TV (a low-budget film on a streaming site).  NOTE: at present, this story needs a TON of work to get it a bit more solid in my mind.
