A boy’s confusing existence is spent with a group of his closest friends. Dying to understand his journey, he realizes where it started.

Not a logline. Not even really a concept. This is what I know about your film:

Your main character is a boy.
He has some friends.

That's it. What is his goal? What are the stakes? Who is trying to stop him? What is the event that kicks it all off? Is "boy" the most descriptive you can get about your character? What's his flaw?

I came across a commercial that included a voice over quoting a poem.
I looked up the poem and it was used in a movie called "Dead Poet's Society".
This might give you some inspiration. It is certainly giving me some ideas.

O Me! O Life!
O Me! O Life!
By Walt Whitman 1819?1892 Walt Whitman
Oh me! Oh life! of the questions of these recurring,
Of the endless trains of the faithless, of cities fill?d with the foolish,
Of myself forever reproaching myself, (for who more foolish than I, and who more faithless?)
Of eyes that vainly crave the light, of the objects mean, of the struggle ever renew?d,
Of the poor results of all, of the plodding and sordid crowds I see around me,
Of the empty and useless years of the rest, with the rest me intertwined,
The question, O me! so sad, recurring?What good amid these, O me, O life?

Answer.

That you are here?that life exists and identity,
That the powerful play goes on, and you may contribute a verse.

For what I've found you don't want to use fluff words, but finding his dad is a great goal. It's very tangible. It's does he or does he not. I think it does leave a lot of room for exploring his mental illness as well (cause that's what it seems like he's struggling with.)

So, should I leave out the word 'confusing' instead? Or say something like, "A boy's confusing existence..due to.." (and should I really explain?) and I wanted 'dying' to be a play on words..both like "I'm dying to eat!" and literally dying.

Well, in the final analysis, the story is up to you. However, I would suggest answering the questions that I suggested to help you out.

A boy?s confusing existence (Why is his existence confusing? Why does he believe that it is? Do others share his belief?) is spent with a group of his closest friends. Dying (Is he at death?s door? ) to understand his journey, he realizes where it started.

That's fine! This is my very first time by the way writing a logline. So, this is obviously going to take some help :)! I'm new to all of this, but I need to learn about it all so that I can understand how to advance my idea.

Here's what I know:
I need a goal for this character. A tangible goal, and I think I may know of one now.
And that logline needs to convey what I feel when I think of the story. Every word counts.

How about something along the lines of..

"A boy's existence gets confusing when a group of his friends interrupt his plans to find his dad. Dying to understand his journey, he realizes where it started."

Oh, Ok.

I posted a log line for review. It's the one about the exonerated killer hunting down the jury members who convicted him. Sorry, Sterling asking on your logline.

What am I looking for?

Hey Presario, I hate to ask while reviewing someone else's line, but could you give mine a look at? it's the one under this.

Sterling, although you may plan for a miniseries. You still have to have something concrete. You may even want to work on a spec script before coming to a whole series.

I'm not sure if you're a beginner writer or not, and if not, I don't mean to offend, but if you want I can recommend some books on writing. Just so you can see how the plot structure plays out.

I've found that knowing how it all culminates is important to knowing how to try to piece even the plot out.
