Research and Planning: Synopsis of Whole Film

Synopsis

Recurrence
Set in a suburban town a young girl is praying in a very ritualistic way. Yet she is being watched, she kneels down and says the Lord’s prayer which are her last words as she is murdered horrifically by an unknown assailant.

Present day Lara and Paul Allgood daughter and father, have bought a new house near the town center and ideal for Paul to commute to work, yet little do they know that there is much more in store for them as they are moving in to the house where the girl was killed 80 years ago. They arrive at the house and begin to unpack boxes, Lara who is not all together happy about the move places a box on the hallway table, after coming back to the hall after collecting another box, she sees that the box has moved.

After moving in Paul receives a phone call telling him that he is needed at work a day earlier than expected and so he leaves his daughter alone in the house. Lara wakes up and sees that her dad is gone, and so takes the opportunity to explore the local area. She takes a stroll along the river behind the property where she meets Matt Simmons, who turns out to be her next-door neighbour, who after startling Lara offers to help her any time she needs him. Back at the house things begin to change, pictures have been moved and it looks as if the house is trying to get her to follow its inner depths.

Paul arrives home to find Lara hysterical and after discovering the root of the problem is just an “unlikely” and “unrealistic” tale about the supernatural he fails to believe her and thinks that she is merely making it up to get out of the place she didn’t want to move to. Terrified Lara calls upon Matt to help her and together they begin to explore the house finding more than they could ever bargain for.

The house is standing on a secret, a secret that no one has ever understood or never wanted to understand. That everything that we know is wrong. The world does not work in the way people assume. Time, is thought to run in a straight line with the past behind and the future in front. Which until 2000 years ago was correct, but a travesty occurred causing time to change so that everyone would be equally treated for the way the world has acted. Time now travels in a circle and the horrific things of the past come back and haunt everyone forever. And the next person to have time fall upon them is Paul and Lara.

Lara and Matt begin to search desperately to find the answer to setting the souls free. But time is running out the souls are becoming restless and soon Lara and Matt come t realise that the house will never leave them alone. 
THE PAST ALWAYS REPEATS ITSELF
RECURRENCE.
