Sam Sertie, a struggling record storeowner, hides a sack of diamonds after a fateful mix-up, then becomes captive to his own double and confronts his inner “Predatory Self” as his sight is mysteriously taken. The plan details creative intent, a psychological-thriller trajectory, and ties to Den Bosch and Brabant-based production resources, including local spending and community benefit.","project plan  \nBLINDFOLD VISION  \nfor an application for financial support from Brabant C  \n20 February 2020  \nContents  \n1.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION  \nFEATURE FILM, 90 MIN ‘BLINDFOLD VISION’  \nSummary  \nSulphur City, the once tranquil and quaint interurban space made up of charming canals, cute little alleyways and kids sitting at the ice cream counter. Now, a cesspit of gangsters, hookers, thieves and crooked cops. Only the old and nearly dead remember “the good old days.\" The flashing blue lights and sirens echoing between the narrow streets is a common theme as the worn-out cops fuelled on shitty pay-checks, instant coffee and cheap cigarettes remain at war with everyone else.  \nThen there’s Sam Sertie, a failing record storeowner with only his cats to keep him company. Down on his luck, he's addicted to Internet dating and self-help seminars from“change your life” guru Sid Lake. Then, out of nowhere, a sack of diamonds falls into his lap after Sertie's the wrong guy, in the wrong place, at the wrong time. But emboldened by Sid, he hides the diamonds in a place no one, possibly even himself, will ever find them.  \nKidnapped, Sertie literally faces his own demons as he’s held captive by his own double. When he mysteriously loses his sight, he's only fuelled by the predator within himself as he discovers sinister secrets about the city's murderous past, and murderous present! Whose vision is true? Bergman, the cynical cop who in a later timeline tries to decipher the events; Lacroix, the crooked cop who negotiates for Sertie’s release; Magdalena, mob\"cleaner”with her own agenda; or Sertie, who might just have a lesson for us all.  \nCredits  \nScreenplay Director Cinematographer Composer Financial partners Sales Agent  \nNoord-Brabant Producers  \nDavid Grover & Phil O’Sullivan  \nNicci Thompson Antonio Cisneros Avanpost  \nGlass House Distribution, Digital Cube  \nGlass House Distribution  \nDavid Grover, Falcon Grove Productions, Den Bosch Monne Tuinhout, Branded Cinema, Eindhoven  \n2. REASON AND IMPORTANCE FOR THE APPLICANT  \nThe “Blindfold Vision” story revolves around a blind man claiming in a police interrogation that he was held hostage by himself, told in a similar style to THE USUAL SUSPECTS, with a police interrogation intercut with flashbacks as the interview unfolds; the “self-hostage”plot being a metaphor representing how we all tend to “hold ourselves hostage” at one time or another. In fact it’s an English expression.  \nPrior to becoming a film producer and moving to Den Bosch, David Grover, producer and co-writer, worked as a banker at ING, where he often “held himself hostage” when facing adversity. David’s coach at ING used a metaphor that we all have inside of us a ‘Predatory Self’ – a version of ourselves that gives in to self sabotaging thoughts in our heads that keep us from living and enjoying the lives we deserve to live.  \nBLINDFOLD VISION is ultimately a story about one man’s struggle to keep his cool and not let his ‘Predatory Self’ run amok under life threatening circumstances. This ultimately became the backbone of the story, with actual pieces of David Grover’s business coaching used as the “self help” seminars the protagonist listens to get his life back on track. There’s legitimate psychology behind the humorous spin we put on self-help.  \nDen Bosch is the perfect backdrop for the story to unfold, with its gritty urban warehouse locations and it’s tight canals creating a claustrophobic feel. We plan to feature Hieronymus Bosch sculptures in several shots to contribute to the surreal atmosphere where we are never sure what’","cbCaitMA6plI8OJn","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaitMA6plI8OJn","pdf",201141,1,10,"English","en",105,"# Project description\n## Feature film summary and plot overview\n## Credits and partners\n# Reason and importance for the applicant\n## Core self-hostage metaphor and psychology basis\n## Background of the producer and narrative foundation\n## Setting strategy and artistic vision elements\n## Genre positioning and international approach\n# Artistic vision and team\n# Commercial approach\n## Distribution and marketing plan outline\n# Planning\n# After Blindfold Vision","[{\"question\":\"What is the central premise of BLINDFOLD VISION?\",\"answer\":\"A blind man claims in a police interrogation that he was held hostage by himself, with the interview intercut with flashbacks to reveal a metaphor for how people trap themselves.
