Free from the shackles of mandatory education, a young man takes his first steps towards a glittering career in screenwriting. But every great script begins with a single word - and our wannabe cannot think of one. Locked away in his bedroom, with only a blank Word document for company, he discovers that inspiration cannot be forced, should not be scheduled, and is regularly uninspired. Surely writing a script's not this hard - it's just talking, right?
