The Walled City

The Walled City

LOGLINE: A schizophrenic man finds peace and acceptance.

SYNOPSIS:

What could make an audience tingle more than to see a man, whose been dejected all his life, rise above his circumstances and end up, at his lowest point, being embraced and supported by the town that scorned him.

Here is the secret of PETER ABBEY. He lives in his journal where he encounters a Christ figure who tells him that he has been punishing himself for something he was asked to do. Namely he was, as an angel in human form, the roman soldier that nailed Jesus to the cross and was asked to do this by Christ to keep any human from being blamed for it.

The Christ figure helps him to come to terms with this by facing the "beast" that represents that past, which is actually him as his angel self. He learns to forgive himself by embracing the "beast."

Meanwhile on the outside world a woman, CATHERINE, whose an accomplished author, accepts him after reading his journal and co-publishes it with him. After the whole town reads the book they realizes that they were wrong and when his mother dies and he stands alone at the grave site, the whole town shows up to support him in his time of need.
