My biggest project ever... Oh Maria!

Welp. This really is my biggest project ever. Started back in 2022-2023, Oh Maria! was my way of coping through psychosis, everyday struggles, and my desire to commit suicide. Originally wanted it to be an ARG, a very creepy one, has now evolved to a movie. A movie which goal is to spread awareness of younger generations want of self destruction, as well as anything on the psychotic spectrum. Psychosis was the worst thing to ever happen to me, but I want to make it something that people can accept and not see as dangerous, if that makes sense.

This story takes place during the early 1930's. The artstyle is based off of late 1920's-1930's cartoons. Maybe I clarify, *based*, since it's pretty obvious it doesn't look the exact same as those cartoons. If I made the artstyle of Oh Maria! too cartoony, the setting, the horror, and the story wouldn't fit. It would look too.. Lighthearted I suppose.

Story

Maria is a 20-23 year old pianist who lacks much emotion. After a mediocre performance, she is run over by a train and dies almost instantly. Once she has ascended to heaven, the people at heavens gate tell her that she's 50/50 good and bad. Due to this rare coincidence, she is made to watch over the people in limbo who have suffered being 50/50 people as well. If she can help them get into heaven, she will also get into heaven.

About Characters

Henry Fletcher (otherwise known as Henry oh so Merry!): Henry is a pretty normal teenager, other than being very, very introverted and shy. He doesn't have any hobbies besides writing poetry. At the age of 17-18, during his highschool years, a girl named Caroline Clark starts going to his school. When he first sees her, he doesn't think much. As time goes on, though, he begins to become obsessed with this girl. Slowly increasing, and slowly going "crazy." After he dies and gets sent to limbo (I won't explain how he died here), he is given an infinite piece of paper to write poems on.
Caroline Clark: Ok, immediately, this character isn't named after me. She's named after the song Caroline, Please Kill Me by Coma Cinema.
Caroline isn't real. She is a person Henry created in his head due to him being super introverted which then, at least for Henry, led to isolation. She's mysterious, quiet, like a shadow. It's kind of hard to explain her, but she's just like a robot. She can't feel anything really, but it's like she's trying to. Either way, she doesn't exist.
