Do a documentary for three minutes about the life of a person who never achived what he wanted and so destroyed the whole group of his freind who had achived much higher. Later he hang himself up. There should be enough violence. In the end animate and write ‘this is how it ends’. And in the rest one minut bring out someone as real charecter whom the man know and ask him to tell about his life in past in short how he worked hard but ended failing to.

This is just a plot there are lot of other topics.
