Synopsis: What is the most wonderful thing in this material world? This is the timeless question posed by a madman to his horrified victims as he coldly prepares them for sacrifice, the correct answer to which is their only means of escape. Drawn into this shadowy realm, cynical L.A. detective Ray Seaton challenges his own perceptions of reality as the materialism and complacency of modern life collide inexorably with the wisdom and archaic practices of the world's oldest culture. Karma and reincarnation intertwine with mystery and suspense, and just a touch of dark humor, in Mortality, a spiritual thriller which dissects life at its most primal. A former law student and white Australian Hindu priest (!), I am currently a quarter-final contender in the International Screenwwriting Awards with this screenplay. I would like to submit this screenplay for your consideration and can be contacted as listed below. Thank you kindly.
