The femme fatale is a woman who enjoys to play poker with other female opponents. As her good luck charm or her mascot, she carries around a doll with her. The doll is old and creepy-looking, but this is the woman's way of knowing she will win in the poker game. However on the rare occasion she does not win, she copes by brutally murdering the opponent and (sometimes) hanging her from a tree as her punishment.
Cast:
- Abbie as femme fatale
- Pip as poker game opponent
- Olivia as detective/journalist who comes into the poker room and investigates the murder
Props:
- Poker game chips/cards
- Doll
- Rocking chair
- Dictaphone/microphone
- Pad of paper
- Classical/jazz music playing on a radio in the background
- Dialogue through the poker game (although not much) and when journalist comes to investigate the scene
- Sound of the table being pushed over by the femme fatale
- A loud noise when the journalist is talking, causing her to look up and say "What was that?"
As well as this being a simpler storyline which will be much easier to complete since we already have all the footage for it, the props are much easier for us to find and use, which will also help in us completing the film successfully. Also, due to the changing synopsis, we have also come up with a new title: 'Winner Dies', based on the part of our storyline where, if the femme fatale's opponent wins the poker game, she will lose everything by being killed.
