Debbie Scott, an influencer turned film producer, runs what she proudly calls “Hollywood in the UK countryside” – a studio presented as thriving, ambitious and in control.

Scenes drift, timelines fracture and cuts no longer connect. As pressure mounts, the boundary between the film Debbie is producing and the life she is staging begins to blur. The (First) Last Screenplay is an intimate portrait of care, denial and an industry that believes every failure can be fixed in post.
