The theodicy of the Book Job was a hard sell when it was originally written way ?back when — which is why a ?”happy ending” chapter was tacked on. ?Otherwise, the book would not have made the cut, been included in the official canon. ?(I write this as someone who has spent no small measure of time pondering the dialectics of the book.)
It’s an even harder sell today in the era of feel good, ?I’m OK, You’re OK, prosperity religion. ?And your theodic theme is not made easier to sell by afflicting an innocent teen with the contrivnace of a malevolent dwarf-like creature. ?Especially when there are so many real life options (incurable diseases, inherited disablities, natural disasters, accidents) with which to unjustly, unfairly torment the kid.
I just don’t see the ?market for the concept. ?I could be wrong and if you can prove me so, more power to you. ?And I will be the 1st one in the ticket line to see the movie.

It seems to me like ?the cards are stacked in his favor during his layover in the commune. ?When the cards should be stacked against him. ?I don’t see anything to worry about. ?Just saying.

Don’t have your logline assume that being a musician is the “most difficult” thing to accomplish. She can always work in the music industry and be a musician, just not on the level as say Beyonce or someone famous — add famous into the logline — that may help.
Let’s say you add in that she is a sharecropper and is also DEAF — now, you’ve staked up the obstacle with a simple disability.
