Creating a plot discourse, a more advanced idea of my short film.

Plot line 1
Our character wakes up with no recollection of the past few days, laying on a beach close to the water, he wakes up and is confused. 'How did I get here?'. He cannot find nobody who he knows, everyone seems to have just disappeared. He finds his bag and starts to walk to places he knows looking for people. He sees a house with the door fully wide open as he enters his house he finds all the supplies that he can, lighter, food, bottled water, PILLS. Tries to call someone - line dead. leaves house.
Montage of walking - journey.
After a couple of days of looking and no signal on his RADIO as he is walking through a forest he sits down to camp for the night, trying to start a fire when he breaks down into tears, looses the will to live on alone and ends his life by overdosing on pills so he can be joined back with his friends and family after death. Just after he passes away you hear the crackle of the radio and a faint voice...
Feedback

  • plot one was to bleak
  • I didnt want my character to be so miserable 
  • I felt as if this idea would be more interesting to viewers due to being able to relate to the character.
  • i felt as if this was a better way to show my directing and producing skills with more to edit and with a larger scale of camera angles to choose from.
