Synopsis
Emma, ever since she was young was a
prankster, now at 20 years old she is a world renowned ballerina who
still lives with her mum. She has morphed her life into one single
focus, ballet. This results in Emma having no time to go out with
friends or do anything a normal 20 year old would do. Due to the
pressuring and hard work from her teacher and mother, Emma becomes a
nervous character with a hint of a mental disorder as she slowly
reveals signs of her going mentally insane. After a difficult night
of rehearsals and abuse from her mother she decides to go out and
meet some of her old friends. Her and her friends reminisce about the
times when Emma used to be fun and used to be the best prankster, as
she would claim to have some ridiculous disease that everyone would
worry about and think was real. After the fun died down, Joe, one of
Emma's oldest friends takes out a baggie of drugs. It is not
indicated what the drug is, only that it is cheap and mixed. Emma's
friends give her some of the drugs and peer pressure her into taking
it, even though Emma has never taken drugs before in her life. Emma
is overwhelmed and in the spur of the moment takes the drug. She then
begins to get the effects of the drugs (reflected in camera work) and
we see a quick fade to black from her point of view. Over the next
few days Emma worries about what she has taken and feels weird things
beginning to happen to her body. She starts getting nose bleeds, as
well as spasms of the stomach, dry mouth, and bluish coloured nails
and and lips. She tells her friends about this but no one believes
her due to her past as a prankster. The symptoms get worse and worse
as she realizes her body is slowly deteriorating, but no one believes
her which leads to her mental insanity. After 3 days, she dies from
drug poisoning.
