You need to decide WHAT this story is about ... a woman? a group? buddies?

A logline should offer some information (not details) about WHO, WHAT, WHERE, WHEN and WHY.

At the top of her game and the middle of her life, a southern born woman reunites with three childhood friends and discovers the buried bottom of her past.

This sounded the most interesting ... A successful, middle-aged Southern woman reunites with three childhood friends and uncovers dark secrets from the past.

The screenplay is based on a true story that is funny and poignant. Any ideas?


At the top of her game and the middle of her life, a southern born woman reunites with three childhood friends and discovers the buried bottom of her past.
-or-
Clear waters and true friendships run deep from Sun Springs to the Suwannee River. Childhood friends reunite for a girl’s getaway and wash away thirty years of  life’s grime to reveal the only love that never dies.
-or-
Four childhood buddies reunite in Rose, Florida on the banks of the Suwannee River to discover that today is finally the day you can look back and laugh. However, names have been changed.
-or-
Four buddies from Sun Springs, Florida reunite for a weekend trip down memory lane. On the banks of the Suwanne River they compare the notes of their pasts and their presents to discover unlikely results.
-or-
any combination or other ideas?

Thanks!
