VILE SNOW WHITE

VILE SNOW WHITE
By Alex Gutenberg

GENRE: Thriller / Suspense, Science Fiction
LOGLINE:

Bodyguard Hunter believes he is protecting a beloved media icon, Snow White. Instead, she turns out to be a drug-fueled narcissist. Her blood is the key to a vaccine for a global, female face-altering plague, drawing her into a brutal war with her stepmother, the Queen, a ruthless CEO determined to control the cure.
Caught between two powerful women, Hunter must save his family — and pay the cost.

Children of Men meets The Boys — with the emotional core of The Pursuit of Happyness.

SYNOPSIS:

In the near future, civilization is collapsing. Flying cars hover above mountains of trash, and most people escape their misery inside cheap VR capsules. One company, the Kingdom of Dreams, rules over what remains.

Hunter, a working-class man desperate to secure a better life for his daughter, takes a job as bodyguard to the corporation’s heiress, a spoiled and drug-addicted media icon known as Powder White. It is his only chance to lift his family out of poverty and get his daughter into a real, non-VR school.

The company’s ruthless CEO — the Queen, Powder White’s own stepmother — unveils a miracle vaccine that can stop a virus disfiguring millions of women. The formula depends on Powder White’s DNA, yet she refuses to give even a single vial of her blood. Fleeing into the underworld, she aligns with the Gnomes — crypto hustlers who dream of toppling the Queen — and with the Prince, a strip-club mogul intent on cloning and exploiting her. Hunter is caught between them, forced to navigate a treacherous war he never asked for.

When their plot backfires, the Gnomes are slaughtered and Hunter is dragged into court, pressured to lie in order to save his family. Powder White and the Queen walk free, while Hunter is thrown in jail. Still refusing to cooperate, Powder White is ultimately killed by the Queen.

Powder White refuses to help — her blood could save millions and earn billions, yet she withholds it, forcing the Queen, herself stricken by the virus, to make the fatal decision to kill her stepdaughter.

Thanks to the Queen’s money, Hunter is released — but only as a future scapegoat, a convenient cover for her stepdaughter’s murder. Bitterly aware of the trap, he exposes the setup: on a livestream he tricks a SWAT team, burns down the motel to create an alibi, and ends up confined to a virtual psych ward instead of a grave.

The Prince’s plan succeeds, and a clone of Powder White survives — vengeful and determined. She enters VR and offers to free Hunter if he kills the Queen, but he refuses. His wife files an appeal, aided by the Queen’s guilt-ridden Assistant.

The Queen is assassinated, and Hunter is freed. Soon after, a traitorous Gnome appears in his home, unaware he is being tailed. A shootout erupts; Hunter grabs his family and escapes. Quietly, his daughter trades her drawing for the Gnome’s flash drive loaded with crypto coins. Together, they ride into the sunrise — just like in one of her drawings.
