The Meeting: a neo-noir crime thriller short script

LOGLINE:
A tense negotiation between two rival mafia bosses takes place in a seedy motel room.

SYNOPSIS:
In this tense, noir-inspired story, VINCENT and SALVATORE, rival mafia bosses, convene in a seedy motel room to negotiate the division of their overlapping territories. As their heated discussion unfolds, an uneasy truce is struck with a signed agreement and a backpack full of cash. However, the fragile peace shatters when an unexpected knock on the door triggers a deadly confrontation. Both men, suspicious of foul play, draw their guns simultaneously, leading to a chaotic exchange of gunfire. The seedy motel room becomes the stage for their final, fatal confrontation, as Vincent and Salvatore both succumb to the consequences of their violent world, leaving behind a scene of smoke and silence. The door opens, and THE MAID finds the two men dead. After spotting the backpack, she nonchalantly zips it closed and straps it to her shoulder, quietly leaving the room.

“THE MEETING” is a gripping tale of greed, betrayal, and the brutal consequences of a criminal underworld’s desperate struggle for power.
