Underwood-Opening Sequence

The film will be about a town called Underwood  with 5 teenagers struggling with the stereotypical  teen problems e,g break ups,friendships,family and popularity.

Opening sequence: The film will start with the narrator voice : Some stories never really leave us…
There was once fairy tales, they where gruesome and sad and in the end everybody died. They taught children lessons, never to go into woods, or to talk to strangers. Like anything they evolved, death and tragedy where replaced with laughter and happily ever after. But as anyone knows, everybody dies. So what happens when the stories we think we know are real, when there is a place like no other, an island in a faraway land, where everything comes together. In a land full of mystery and stories what is real and what is fantasy?
This is Underwood, these are their stories, and there is no point leaving.
