Story Inspiration
I witness a domestic violence event in my neighbourhood. There were two Asian ladies. The older one was hitting, the younger one. I don’t know how a young lady was related; daughter or sisters. I could only see from a narrow window, and the visual was disturbing.
I called Crime Stoppers Australia and reported the event. Not sure what happened after that. But I had a bizarre idea in my mind.
What if you witness the event again from a different window?
Can I go back in time and learn what happened?
Wouldn’t it be interesting to see the perspective of the old and young ladies?
I wanted to make a low-budget film and decided my protagonist would witness such an event from a car.
A girl + A strange man + An honest Uber driver + One night + Murder + Time travel + Mystery + Time Loop
That’s how Chakr was born.
