Idea por una Pelicula: Las Cuerdas

There is a band called The Ropes and a lot of their music is so inspiring to me that I decided to think through some of the songs and begin composing short videos from each title such as 'Love is a Chain Store'. The idea is to have a young woman who finds love in the chain store with a lovely woman and then falls in love with a man in the same town after just recently going through a tough divorce. Spending time with each of them she can't decide who to be with until she discovers the man has been cheating on her, just like her ex husband. Through jealousy and rage she plots a way to ensure he never cheats again. She calls him to her home and during dinner executes him right at the dinner table. All the while, the female she meets at the store has uncovered her plot and arrives too late to save the man but tries to avenge his death in an attempt to put an end to her ploy. Through a great struggle, she too is shot and killed. In the end, our villain is left alone with her dead love in her arms. She carries her down the stairs and into a seat at the table. Returning to her chamber upstairs, she writes a note telling the whole tale and even about her inevitable death as she ties a noose and throws herself off the second story to swing across the velvet stairs.
