 “FUTROPOLIS”
By
           Thomas E. Carter and Gabe Videla


Los Angeles 2039, Anthony Conrad, a creative Real Estate genius ushers in a new era of urban redevelopment through a secretly financed motion picture and a multi-trillion dollar development, cloning Manhattan New York within a 36 square mile area of South Metropolitan Los Angeles. He saw opportunity where others did not. How did he accomplish the impossible?

​

The setting, modern day, Anthony, a handsome mid 40’s organizational and Real Estate wizard has discovered the secret to unlocking political gridlock preventing urban redevelopment of Los Angeles. He understands what he is up against and has developed a way to educate all of the players as to the roles they will play in his master plan. It is to create a $100 million dollar plus movie showing exactly how it all came together. 

He is convinced it’s the only way to get enough players on the same page to reach the tipping point. A tipping point once reached will result in a cascade of actions impossible to stop until his objective of building the ultimate city is realized. His carefully devised plan requires convincing his multi-billionaire Uncle, Marvin Conrad to play along, invest millions for a major Hollywood studio to pick up his “Pitch” to 1,500 of the world’s richest billionaires investing a trillion dollars in his real estate project.

 

Following his success with Marvin to support the plan and Warner Brothers Studios picking up the project Uncle Marvin dies. Anthony is devastated and now faces a dilemma: release the movie for public viewing, resulting in land speculators pricing the land out of reach or somehow find an alternative way to move forward without his late uncle’s billions. When it appears his choice is releasing the movie, he learns Marvin has left him all his money. Now free to proceed with his plans, he hires the largest law firm in the Country, and Peter Calthorn, an internationally famed planner, to partner with him. The uphill battle continues with the death of Anthony’s mother Kate and becoming romantically involved with Amy Forbes, his attorney, whose father had previously fired Anthony’s father, Albert, leading to Albert’s death by alcoholism on skid row.  

​

Tension builds as the completed film is privately screened to the 1,500 Billionaires leading to their investment. This is followed by private screenings to every Legislator in California, and key leaders of League of California Cities. The plan reaches a tipping point when it’s been leaked to the media resulting in frenzy. Will the Governor and the Legislature act on the plan or not? The story intertwines the human characteristics of secrecy, greed, jealousy, premeditation, and love, combined with a cinematic extravaganza that will spellbind audiences. It’s EPCOT on steroids, turning Los Angeles into the global “City of Tomorrow.”
