One word at a time. Painfully and slowly.

The starting scene is going to be a part of the climax scene. This scene should provoke questions that will only be answered towards the end of the film; Just like the denouement of detective stories. So this scene ends with two characters confronting for the last time. One of the characters will die after this confrontation.

Now the beginning of the story is taken care of, we can go back to the past and explore the events that lead to this fateful confrontation. The main character is a writer of sorts, who has been working on a story for quite some time. We see him struggling to write this story. We even find out later that he has made a deal with the devil to help him finish this story. Things start getting weirder once we begin to tie all the strings. This writer's character has been working on an autobiographical story. In his story, he explores the life of a writer who has been struggling to write a story, He writes what happens to him on a daily basis: mostly just him trying hard to write. The writer tries to capture the struggle of finishing a story; of the pain of artistic endeavor. In this process, he manages to create a simulated being. This simulated being has literally come out from his story. He later finds the simulated being and even manages to befriend him. Once this relationship is established the writer shares his story to the simulated being who is amazed at the coincidence. 

Towards the climax of the film, the writer takes his simulated being to show him what he has written. When the simulated being reads what the writer has written, his world falls apart. The simulated being realizes that he is just a simulation, and enraged he kills the writer. The simulated being is seen holding a paper that creepily describes the event that has just happened- the simulated being killing the writer- in a precise manner. The film ends.

We are to believe that this simulated being will also eventually create a being who will later end up killing him. 

The story itself should feel as normal as everyday life. There should be no overdramatic tone in the structure or articulation of this story on the big screen. Think of films by Yorgas lanthamos, his movies seem realistic even if the premise is absurd and far from reality. One main concern is to portray the metafictional aspect of this story,  this story plays itself at least three times. Take reference from syndrome and a century, where the second half of the film is the same as the first half with the actors and locations changed. 

The simulated being follows the exact same story as the writer himself. The simulated being is a double, with similar feelings and ideas as the writer. 

In a small studio apartment is a dead body. This dead body belongs to  Stephan k has been stabbed multiple times but his face remains unscratched. A person is seen leaving his apartment. Nobody can identify this person. 

Stephan K is dead, he was a writer. Before his death, Stephan was working on a screenplay. Stephan lived an ascetic life and had no close friends to speak of. He had made an acquaintance a few weeks prior to his murder.
