Synopsis    

To start your film protect you will provide a synopsis of your chosen film. A synopsis is a condensed, focused summary: Give the main facts. Outline the main plot. Most importantly, make sure the specific "historical" element is clearly visible. • Relevance: The most important historical films attempt to come to grips with the past, concern issues that still trouble us in the present, are about events that still have meaning for us in the present. Communicate that relevance. • Audience: Keep your general audience of high school and college teachers and students in mind, of course. But, specifically, write for people unfamiliar with the film. Write so that you can help high school and college students "shopping" for a film to view or to work on. • Style: Communicate basic information, but write in an exciting fashion. Make the film sound interesting, something people will want to see, and thus your work on it will become all that more worthwhile. • Length: a long paragraph -- ~ 200-300 words.
