Development Pitch
The world needs to understand how men in their twenties into their thirties are thinking. Male youth suicide and rates of depression are on the up and up. Why? What is wrong about being male? The main character is just a young guy who like to live a good life, have a great relationship, not be complicated. But complications arise. In the family as death of a parent figure looms and decisions on treatment have to be made and relatives turn up out of love or opportunism? In lust and love as the enchantress confuses him with the messages she sends. In trust of good people and in trying to figure out who to trust. In assessing a business idea – is a dog hospice a good business proposition? In moving through the public – why don’t some women want to sit next to men on aircraft? In making decisions and in deciding not to make decision but just go with the flow and not let it get you down. In deciding to focus on male integrity even without all the skills and answers. A movie about Ted needs to be made to show imperfection does not write a person off, man or woman. People are complex so go with it. There’s more to life than a social media profile. Incinerate gives Ted a strong voice to hear.
