¬The Countdown
¬The Launch
¬Imminent Threat
¬Shockwave
¬National Threat
¬The Final Hour
Basis of Treatment:
The year is 2027 and Daniel, Timothy and Benjamin are students living within the centre of London. They are their school when they are told they need to go home. In recent years there has been a lot of tension between the UK and North Korea, due to the UKs Nuclear programme of Trident picking up North Korean submarines near the shore of the UK. The UK defence system has detected North Korean missiles. It has been broadcast around the UK through a PSA that there is only a certain amount of time before one hits London, Manchester, Edinburgh, Belfast and Cardiff. The country has descended into chaos; there is economic ruin. The teenagers are able to get into their friends garage as the nearest public bunker is too far away, they manage to get to the garage in the house in time only a few minutes before the missiles arrive in the specific locations. The bomb hits; two weeks later one of the boys opens the door to the bunker… the trailer ends on a cliff hanger.
Top Line: Three foster children escape nuclear war just in time, but when they emerge they don't know what they will find.
Big Question: Will they be able to survive the horrors that they will find beyond their bunker that they have been in for the past 2 weeks? Have other people survived or are we the last ones.
Additional ideas, in order:
Scene: boys at home, watching TV, PSA comes on
News Broadcast: Max Tegmark presenting his new book Life 3.0 to TV journalist
MT in answer to journalist: "we are facing Life 3.0, a form of silicon mind that is like ours in its creativity for insight, but totally alien in its thought processes.
I (interviewer): SO, the next frontier for AI is mastering the human language, using algorithm?
MT: this has already happened
Cut to fake obama clip
MT to camera: North Korea is our threat, it has already carried out cyber attacks. It will be missiles next.
Scene: Boys at home, watching TV, PSA comes on
PSA reads: This is your final public service announcement, please make your way to your personal, or public nuclear shelters, or a building with structural integrity. This is not a drill. Missiles have been detected and their trajectories have been set towards all major cities. Make your way to your personal or public nuclear shelters or a buildings with structural integrity.
Scene 2: Rection shot, realise everyone else in foster home has left due to earlier announcement, and foster home staff didn't check the room that the boys were in.
Scene 3: Boys running towards their shelter, slow motion shot of them running, realisation that it is locked and have to take refuge in the garage where they say their final words. They get knocked out by the blast but survive.
Scene 4: 2 weeks later they wake up and open the garage door for there to be a bright light, end

Your treatment has the makings of a gripping narrative thanks to its topical subject matter. You have discussed creating some news broadcasts and sourcing a setting that looks like wasteland.
