Good idea for a short movie?

Well.. I already know I am not going to make 100 pages with the screenplay I'm writing now.
So I was thinking of another short movie which popped in my head just this morning.
Now would you like to see a movie like this?

A 23 year old boy is on his way home from school when he sees a body lying in the bushes. He gets of his bike and notices it's a little girl who has missing for weeks.She is murdered.
He calls the police and expect them to thank him. In stead they arrest him.
They think he's the one who killed her.
He's innocent and has a hard time proving that.

RE: Good idea for a short movie?

It sounds very general, so you'd definitely have to give it some meat first. Also, you'd have to make it pretty convincing that the boy couldn't prove himself innocent too. But, certainly it could turn into something interesting. Oh, and by the way, what language is your excerpt in? Is it Germanic or Nordic?^.^

Ooh! :) Dutch! That sounds fascinating. But anyways, I'm glad to help. It sounds intriguing, but it'll just need details, details, details! Oh, and some research, to figure out he can be framed for the murder! :) Good luck!

I have some ideas that will work out fine.
I was writing and wrote four pages quite fast.
Too bad I have to leave now.
I wil write more when I get back.
