Summary of Short film

 My short film will feature relationships of different sexualities beginning with a heterosexual couple, where the man will argue and become aggressive to his girlfriend as well as his best friend when he is confronted about it. The main character will go on an upward trajectory to have a hero arc story.  During the build up, the man will run away with sirens playing in the background. As the story progresses it is revealed that he is gay and was in love with his best friend for a long time. The man tries to kill himself during the arc.
