Até meia-noite do terceiro dia

Abstract

The present work aims to address the process of creation and development of the fiction feature film script “Até Meia-Noite do Terceiro Dia”. The feature, from the fantastic drama genre, brings the story of Marissa, a twenty-one-year-old girl who discovers she is the victim of a curse that takes away her will to live. Guided by a story written by her deceased pastor, by her childhood drawings, and mentored by her childhood Fairy Godmother, Marissa sets out on a journey to find the antidotes to overcome the curse that could lead her to deep and eternal sleep. This memorial intends to address a little about my relationship with the script, how it came about, the questions and reflections that awakened me to write it, my experience with depression (curse) transported to the protagonist and the plot, as well as doubts and insecurities during the script development process. It also points out the audiovisual and theoretical references that inspired me in the making of the story.
