HIDDEN HEALING
By Robyn Henderson

GENRE: Art House
LOGLINE:

After burned out CEO Kate, makes a bad business call, the company Board orders she takes some time off. Desperate to destress, knowing she has a lot to lose, she leaves  her family and heads for a rainforest region she has heard about. She crosses paths with local Elder, Mary who has lived in the rainforest for decades. After a rocky start, they find common ground as Mary shares her healing knowledge and rituals. Kate shares long hidden secrets with Mary and together they create a new life for Kate.

SYNOPSIS:

Mary, local wise Elder has lived in the rainforest region in a small cabin for decades. Locals know and respect her and she does her own thing, healing people and helping those who cross her path.

Kate works 14 hour days for a harsh corporate organisation who are demanding, ruthless and ungrateful. She is a mother, wife, sister, daughter and aunty, but has no time for herself and is on the brink of a breakdown. She intuitively and spontaneously books a trip to the rainforest region after a blow up with her boss and an argument with her husband and daughter.

By chance Kate meets Mary at the local store near the rainforest and they begin walking the rainforest track. As they overcome mishaps and misunderstandings, Mary shares her wisdom in a life changing impact for Kate.

Well written, both the logline and synopsis. The logline would benefit from some tightening. The synopsis, however is brill. This is definitely an intriguing story that would definitely lend itself to the screen. Folk medicine and tropical rainforest, relationship building and finding oneself; is a perfect recipe for broad reaching film.

Thanks Morgan Aitken - the logline is a work in progress. Will let you know when I update/revised. All the best for 2026.
