SPENCER, 1928
By Veronica R Tabares

GENRE: Family, Fantasy
LOGLINE:

When a twin mysteriously disappears his sister won’t give up until she finds him, even if it means traveling through her dreams to another world to do it.

SYNOPSIS:

It’s 1928 and Edwin’s birthday. He and his friends are camping out in the backyard to celebrate. This is new for Edwin, who has had trouble making friends at school.

But Emma, Edwin’s twin sister, isn’t allowed to camp out because she’s a girl. She’s told girls need to stay at home. When she complains to her brother he tells her it’s “just how things are” and “boys do, girls watch.”

For revenge, Emma and her friends play an elaborate prank that makes the boys believe they are being haunted. It works and sends the tough boys running home, screaming. Only Edwin isn’t running or screaming. He’s missing.

Edwin has managed to dream himself to another world and a city made of circus tents. There he finds the inhabitants aren’t human, but animal-like.

Edwin befriends a dragon and become the dragon trainer.

At home, Emma’s family is in distress because the police have given up. But Emma never gives up and starts having strange dreams where she sees Edwin with the dragon.

Just when Edwin gets into trouble and has to flee the big tent, Emma dreams herself there and is captured. But Emma is a fighter and escapes her cage. The twins are reunited.

They decide to rescue the dragon. Turns out the dragon is also out of place and is just a baby. Everything doesn’t go quite smoothly, but the twins manage to take the dragon to his home and get back home themselves.

Mom and Dad are ecstatic to have their children back and admit that they, too, traveled through dreams to other worlds when they were kids.
