Narrative of 'Solo' thriller


Narrative of ‘SOLO’

'They thought it was uncrackable...it wasn't.'

The title sequence is an introduction to our thriller we have created called ‘SOLO’. The main structure of the thriller follows the idea of an autistic boy discovering a hidden code on a website on his computer. This intrigues him, especially as he has Asperger syndrome, therefore his mind has a different way of thinking. After solving the code he manages to break into the FBI mainframe. When he has succeeded in doing this he leaves a typed message on the FBI workstation after discovering certain problems and information that the organisation had been keeping from the public.

The message reads: ‘"US foreign policy is akin to Government-sponsored terrorism these days … It was not a mistake that there was a huge security stand down on September 11 last year … I am SOLO. I will continue to disrupt at the highest levels … "

The hacking scandal attracts a monumental amount of speculation on the verdicts and movements of the FBI and also the teenage boy.  The film then follows the life of the boy focusing on the consequences of his actions and the legal prosecutions he faces. The underlying decision of whether the teenager will face extradition from the USA or whether the legal charges will be dropped still stands thereby altering the storyline to be one of a legal thriller.
