Hey, guys.
After overcoming my decade-long midlife crisis (ages 25 to 35), I've spent the best part of this month rewriting my script. Problem is, I can't decide on a title - originally called "Vox Populi" (quickly vetoed by my mother), it's been known as "Heretic", "Anticitizen 1", "Dominion" and even briefly "Invisible War". I am stuck between titling it "Phantom Crisis" or "Purple Crucible".
To help you decide which way to swing, the story is set in a post-Brexit Britain (think Akira meets Blade Runner) about a jaded, cynical cop and a freedom fighter with a vision, who later goes rogue after learning of the rebellion's true nature, involving a clandestine conspiracy to secretly rule the country between the rebels, police and press.
I am aware the former title sounds like something out of a comic book (I am not a fan of comic book movies for the most part), while the latter sounds like a fantasy adventure and may be too symbolic, but I leave it to you to vote.
Yours truly,
S.

I prefer either your old title of Invisible War or Phantom Crisis.

Living in post-Brexit Britain, I'm still waiting for it to look like Bladerunner! Rains about as much, but that's all. And midlife??? LOL Not planning on living to a ripe old age, then?

Invisible War is probably your safest bet.
