Plot outline

The film will open into a man running through (what should be) a busy town center at night. He is running frantically away from something, however, the viewer never fully see's what or who he is running from.
The film will be narrated by a calm and gentle male voice. This will contradict what is being seen on screen. The narrator will identify himself as the running man and explain (vaguely) a bit about his situation.
At the end of the chase the man will come to a busy road. the camera shows the mans legs stepping out onto the road, goes blank all that is heard are non diagetic car screeches and horns and the barking of dogs. It will then jump to a title sequence, or could have titles integrated into the start sequence. Continuing on from the sequence we would be filming, the film would skip to the start of the narrative, before the chase and would go through the film showing how the character got into money troubles and went to a loan shark for money and couldn't get it back. So he gets involved with drug dealings in order to get the money  back, after he repays the loan shark, he has made new enemies, who come in two main groups. Both of which begin to chase him as the film returns back to the point in the narrative where the film began, revealing the plot and answering some, but not all questions.

This suits it's genre well as it hives the incentive that the audience should ask questions, and provides the audience with sufficient material to try and piece together, but not to get an answer.
