Synopsis: Beuatiful Georgetown University student gets caught up in suicidal doomsday cult in the Austrian Alps. German stuntman boyfriend goes after her to rescue her.

Historical Background: In 1993, 53 people - members of the 'Order of the Sun Templers' committed suicide in Switzerland and Canada - or was it murder?

This film explores a different time line - what could have happened had someone staged an intervention, packaging a delicate and highly current topic into a palatable, entertaining package of a psychological action adventure.

Tom is a daredevil stuntman jumping off 10 story buildings in ‘DDorf’ (Düsseldorf) and other locations around Germany and Europe.

Anna is a gorgeous model and Georgetown university student from LA, majoring in political sciences. Her father a member of congress. She is travelling Europe on leisure, working as a waitress in between photo shoots.

‘Once in the BLUE MOON’: When Tom walks into her lounge bar one evening, she feels strangely attracted to him and sends him a rose. Baffled, he picks up the lead ... and a passionate love story unfolds. Until...

Anna continues her journey to go skiing in the Alps as planned beforehand. She gets caught up in a doomsday cult in the Austrian Alps, near St. Anton. She succumbs to the subtle but powerful cult mind control techniques which drastically change her personality - her thoughts, her feelings, her behavior.

She sends Tom a devastating good-bye card, letting him know that she has to pursue her ‘path of light’ and that their relationship is thus over.

Tom, after a brief phase of shocked disbelief, recuperates and catches the next train to the origin of the post card: St. Anton.

There he meets Professor Mike, the cult expert flown in from Australia, where he teaches social psychology with an emphasis on cult mind control at a major university. (One of the council members found him with a google search over the internet after they realized through the testimony of a 'defector' that there are high level kids involved and that a police intervention would be likely to initiate 'the transition': suicide. - )

Tom and Professor Mike team up to rescue Anna and the rest of the cult members. A careful intervention needs to be planned.

Michael Crighton style suspense and tension build up as the critical day of the intervention approaches...

There is an explosion in the mountains near the cabin … two crazy snow-boarders doing a double back flip over the heads of the baffled cult members during a morning service… Matrix style slow motion… ...

From the ‘Cultural Revolution’ of ‘Chairman Mao’ to the Tokyo subway nerve gas poisonings of Aum Shinry Kyo and 9/11 - the reader gets a deep insight into the workings and effects of a little understood historical phenomenon: mind control.

He is also afforded an understanding of counter measures used in exit counseling as well as methods of preventing cult involvement and healing mind abuse trauma. (This film is one of them.)

It's a personal journey of a different kind that leaves the audience pondering, well entertained... and hungry for more.

Anyone who has ever been touched by the cult phenomenon – directly or indirectly – or who is interested in the phenomenon of mind control … or just good entertainment.

There is a good story, depth, humour, clever psychology, exciting action with good matrix-style free-riding stunts, awesome nature shots, artistic cinematography, beautiful people, and romance. (Dead Poets Society meets La Nuit de la Glisse meets Mission Impossible)

The author is one of a handful of cult experts around the plant who have a deep and comprehensive understanding of cult mind control - based on personal experience and indepth study. After a personal cult experience he deprogrammed himself and went on to write his masters thesis in psychology on Cult Trauma and Recovery, to conduct voluntary exit counselings and to give lectures about mind control at universities and schools around the US and Europe.

He relates the subject in a way that is easily understood by the average individual, yet challenging to the intellectual.

The status at present is pre-production. This film is ready to be made and turned into a Blockbuster by the right regisseur and production company. Russell Crowe (for the role of the cult leader) and others have been approached. (Possible roles for Tom the Stuntman: Brad Pitt, Johnny Depp, Hugh Jackman, Tom the Stuntman)

Involvement in this very important film project is expected to be highly rewarding - and lots of fun.

Treatment and script upon request, when sincere interest is established.
