THE STORY
Step into the dark and dangerous world of “The Nest”, an exclusive Bel-Air residence where nothing is as it seems. Follow Ashley Martin, a pet shop caretaker turned estate caretaker, as she navigates the strange and mysterious events that unfold within its stonecut walls. With her teenage daughter Talon by her side, Ashley discovers that the animals owned by billionaire Duncan Carlysle are kept at the Nest in deadly predator-prey pairs, and that someone, possibly her estranged husband, Glenn Martin, is watching her every move.
When masked intruders break into the mansion, Ashley and Talon find themselves on the run, relentlessly pursued in a nightmarish chase filled with twists, turns, and no way out. But before they can uncover the sickening truth behind their ordeal, Ashley must fight for her and her daughter’s survival against the increasingly dangerous and disturbed Glenn. With intense action, dramatic moments, and a gripping storyline, “A Natural Selection” will keep you on the edge of your seat until the very end.
Don’t miss out on this thrilling screenplay that explores the human condition, its parallels in the animal world, and the lengths people will go to in order to survive.
“For all of our laws, for all of our refined civilization, we’re still just animals trapped in our cages.”
