A film has been moving from drawer to drawer of a large production company for years. There are several scripts, the original, the one brought by the producer, the one brought by another producer who came later, the one brought by another scriptwriter that no one really knows where it came from... and the production company has had enough. He needs a final script for this film and he has brought all parties together so that you can agree once and for all.

Screenplay is a narrative game in which you and your friends are going to tell a movie that you are going to invent as you go.

A movie can have different tones: Action, Drama, Romanticism, Mystery, Comedy and Horror. Every good movie has a little bit of each of them! At the beginning of the game, players secretly choose which of these tones they prefer to boost. Taking turns, each player introduces an actor into the film and describes his character or narrates a scene in which several actors advance the plot of the film. In this way the tones of the film gain points. At the end of the movie, the preferences of each player are revealed. The one who best suits the final result will have won the game! It will probably be time to play another one as revenge.
