Film script

A sign is shown which reads;
“the blue hole
The blue hole was discovered in the late 1950s and is rumoured to have no bottom, under no circumstances should people swim in the blue hole due to the dangerous nature of the pool”
Under the sign is a memorial for a boy who drowned in the pool.

The blue sapphire lake sparks in the soon, birds chirping in the distance, the sun high in the sky, reflecting off the lake. On the bank is a pile of clothes folded up with a note on top, the note slowly blows in the wind.

Cut
The sound of a car pulling up in the distance, and a door slamming, the sound of footsteps getting closer.

Violet is running towards the lake, the wind blowing her hair, as she runs past the memorial the sun reflects off the metal of it and shines.

Narration by finch;
“violet, if you’re reading this then you found my clues and found me, I’m sorry to do this to you, I love you, but we both knew it was going to happen, I know you’re probably crying right now but don’t, remember all the fun we had on our wondering project, congrats, you completed it, make sure to hand it in”

Cut

Violet is staring down at the note with tears running down her face

Finchs narration  continues

“hey with any look this hole really leads to a portal like the rumours said, please don’t blame yourself for this, for my last wish I’d like for you to live every moment to the maximum and remember you deserve to be loved and it wasn’t your fault
Love finch”

Cut

The sun slowly fades into the hills in the distance, the sound of crickets chirping fades in. Violet is sitting with her knees to her chest staring at the pool, the moon starts to reflect off the lake with small ripples distorting the picture

Fade in

Police sirens are heard in the distance slowly getting louder

Violets phone starts to ring
