Abstract
  • Flesh & Blood is a 118-page horror-drama screenplay about a single mother struggling to control her cannibalistic urges while caring for her young daughter and evading an increasingly suspicious detective. Two primary themes of this screenplay are control and motherhood. The protagonist of the film, Christine, grapples with controlling her need to eat human flesh. Her desire to keep her daughter Layla safe causes Christine to be controlling of her as well, something that Layla both understands and resents. Christine’s cannibalism is linked to her identity as a mother, as those urges first appeared when she was pregnant. Christine’s relationship with her own mother also shows how women may define themselves in opposition to their mothers while inhabiting some of the same qualities.
