Twelve magical coins are the only hope against rise of an immortal army fueled by dark
powers. Driven by his father's legacy, young prince must race against a treacherous
prince to gather them before their kingdom falls.
SYNOPSIS:
In the kingdom of Beldoria, young Prince Karan craves glory, battle, and the approval of his father, King Dharam. But when a threat resurfaces, war finds him first. Long ago, during the divine sea churning, two mysterious powders emerged — one black as night, the other shimmering gold. Equal in power, opposite in nature, both were too volatile to destroy. The celestial council split each into twelve portions and made them coins, entrusted them to the mightiest warriors across realms, each coin carrying immense energy. Today, the black coins have already been claimed by a powerful figure commanding an immortal army, who has allied with King Bali for mutual gain. Meanwhile, the gold coins remain scattered and hidden, guarded by ancient forces awaiting a worthy soul to uncover them. Bali, born to a minor kingdom, is consumed by jealousy. He believes his father sacrificed too much to build King Dharam’s empire and that he deserves an equal share of the world’s power. With the cursed coins in his grasp, he prepares to take what he believes is rightfully his. To stop him, King Dharam sends Karan on a quest that begins with a gift—one golden coin. To find the rest, Karan must face divine trials scattered across the land. He confronts the monstrous Wolf King, whose territory lies untouched by human feet. In a jungle infested with grotesque onion layered monkeys—layered beasts that birth one another endlessly—he must survive the swarm to retrieve a coin from a child’s grip. In a time-looped sanctuary, he solves a cryptic biological puzzle guarded by extinct hybrid creatures. At the peak of his quest, Karan is ambushed by Inderjit, the fierce son of a rival king. After a brutal battle, Inderjit overpowers him, claims the collected coins, and leaves Karan deadly wounded to die. Soon after, Beldoria falls, and King Dharam is slain. Karan is rescued by a wandering guide and taken to a sacred cave of white marble statues. There, his soul is judged. If deemed worthy, he can imprint his will upon the stone statues and raise a new army to continue the fight. He pilots a long-lost Vimana armed with ancient weapons. He navigates a celestial travel ring guided only by stars. To claim another coin, he sacrifices his elemental essence—earth, water, fire, and air—to pass into a sacred cave and outwit an invisible guardian. As Karan continues his quest, Inderjit hunts the remaining coins along a parallel path. While Inderjit gains ground, Karan is forced to confront more than just physical trials: the vengeful ghosts of a slaughtered family, the deep wounds of betrayal, and a haunting dilemma — should he stop Inderjit at any cost, stay focused on completing the quest, or surrender and let it all slip into Inderjit’s hands?" With each coin harder to claim, the kingdom feels like a fading dream. Can Karan grow strong enough to turn the tide, or is he already too late? GOLDEN COIN is a dark, mythic epic where destiny is shaped by sacrifice, and immortality is not a gift—but a curse earned through fire, grief, and will.

This sounds like an interesting movie concept of 12 movies. The logline needs to be shortened.

Thank you, Heldi, for the excellent feedback. I'm working on shortening the logline but finding it challenging to keep the story's essence intact.

Cut "mani power" , nobody has any idea what it means without reading the synopsis or screenplay. Also cut the name of the kingdom, you don't need it; it (1) interrupts the flow of the logline; (2) is an extra word; (3) it's for the story. With these two things cut its a solid...

Hi Amit, No problem, I read the first two pages of your script; you're not a bad writer. The first thing what I would do now is download some free screenwriting software, like WriterDuet, and get your screenplay "industry formatted, ' besides that, buy a copy of "The Hollywood Standard" Good luck! And if you have any questions, don't shy to ask!! Cheers, Rutger
