The PM Who Took On Dupont

Green Dominion

A political epic about soil, power, and the fight for the future.

Logline

When idealistic Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau launches a radical hemp revolution across the Canadian Prairies, he ignites a war against a shadowy petrochemical dynasty modeled after the DuPont family empire — risking his career, his family legacy, and the future of the planet itself.


Genre

Political Thriller / Eco-Drama / Prairie Epic


Tone

A blend of There Will Be Blood, The Big Short, and Interstellar, with sweeping prairie cinematography and tense backroom political warfare.


ACT I — THE DYING WINTER

Canada is trapped in economic stagnation. Farmers across Canada are drowning in debt. Oil prices crash. Wildfires consume forests in British Columbia while floods devastate the Prairies.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau faces collapsing approval ratings and growing unrest. Critics call him a celebrity politician disconnected from ordinary Canadians.

During a diplomatic summit in rural Saskatchewan, Trudeau meets an aging Ukrainian-Canadian farmer named Elias Kovach, who shows him something extraordinary: experimental industrial hemp fields capable of restoring depleted soil, capturing massive amounts of carbon, producing biodegradable plastics, and revitalizing rural economies.

Elias tells Trudeau:

“Oil made the twentieth century. Hemp could save the twenty-first.”

Trudeau becomes obsessed.

He learns that hemp was historically suppressed by powerful chemical conglomerates whose fortunes depended on petroleum plastics, synthetic fibers, and paper monopolies.

At the center of this web stands the fictional Beaumont-DuPont Corporation — descendants of old industrial dynasties who quietly influence banks, media, and politicians across North America.


ACT II — THE PRAIRIE REVOLUTION

Against the advice of nearly everyone in Ottawa, Trudeau unveils “The Green Dominion Initiative”:

  • Massive hemp subsidies for Prairie farmers
  • Carbon-negative building programs using hempcrete
  • Bioplastic manufacturing plants in Manitoba and Alberta
  • Indigenous-led hemp cooperatives
  • Reforestation partnerships powered by hemp-based soil recovery

At first, Canada laughs.

Then the boom begins.

Abandoned small towns come alive. Young people return to farming communities. Railways reopen. Hemp batteries and textiles become major exports to Europe and Asia.

Drone shots sweep across endless glowing green prairie fields stretching to the horizon like oceans.

But the Beaumont-DuPont empire strikes back.

A sophisticated disinformation campaign floods social media:

  • “Hemp destroys traditional values.”
  • “Trudeau wants communist farming.”
  • “Canada is becoming a drug state.”

Corporate lobbyists pressure Washington to sanction Canadian exports. News pundits mock Trudeau nightly.

Then mysterious fires destroy several hemp processing facilities.

One whistleblower investigating Beaumont-DuPont dies in what authorities call a “vehicle accident.”

Trudeau realizes he is not fighting ordinary political opposition — he is fighting an entrenched industrial order terrified of losing control.


ACT III — THE CARBON WAR

Global temperatures surge.

Massive climate disasters hit:

  • Heat domes in India
  • Food shortages across Europe
  • Mega-hurricanes devastating the American south

Suddenly, Canada’s hemp infrastructure becomes geopolitically vital.

Scientists discover Canadian hemp farms are removing carbon from the atmosphere at unprecedented scale while restoring poisoned farmland.

Countries begin copying Canada’s model.

The Beaumont-DuPont corporation launches its final attack: a secret attempt to crash Canada’s banking system and trigger a constitutional crisis that would force Trudeau from office.

During a televised emergency address from Parliament Hill, Trudeau delivers the defining speech of his life:

“The old world told us prosperity required poisoning the Earth.
They told us greed was realism.
They told farmers to disappear and communities to die.
But this land remembers another way.”

Farmers blockade highways in support of the hemp initiative.

Indigenous leaders, truckers, students, scientists, and immigrants unite across political divides.

For the first time in decades, Canada feels united.


CLIMAX

In a cinematic finale during a thunderstorm over the Prairies, leaked documents expose Beaumont-DuPont’s decades-long suppression of hemp technologies and manipulation of environmental policy.

Global markets collapse around fossil-fuel plastics.

Canada emerges as the center of a new green industrial revolution.

Trudeau stands alone in a vast hemp field at sunrise.

The wind moves through the plants like waves across an emerald ocean.

A young child asks him:

“Do you think we saved the world?”

Trudeau looks across the endless fields.

“No.
I think we finally stopped destroying it.”

Fade out.

The PM In Flanders Fields

In Flanders Fields

A Historical Drama Treatment

Starring Justin Trudeau as John McCrae
Written by Agent Intrepid Deux II


Logline

Amid the mud, fire, and mechanized horror of the First World War, Canadian doctor and soldier John McCrae struggles to preserve his humanity as young men vanish into the trenches of Belgium. After the death of his closest friend during the Second Battle of Ypres, McCrae writes a poem that will echo across generations and transform remembrance forever.


Tone & Style

The film blends the emotional realism of 1917 with the poetic melancholy of Atonement and the patriotic soul-searching of Gallipoli.

Visually, the movie contrasts:

  • golden Canadian wheat fields,
  • cold European trenches,
  • crimson poppies emerging from shattered earth,
  • and dreamlike poetic sequences where memory and grief merge together.

The screenplay by Agent Intrepid Deux II mixes historical realism with reflective narration, presenting McCrae as both soldier and reluctant philosopher.


ACT I — THE DOCTOR FROM GUELPH

The film opens in rural Guelph in 1914.

John McCrae is introduced as:

  • a physician,
  • poet,
  • teacher,
  • and veteran of the Boer War.

He believes civilization is progressing toward enlightenment. Europe’s great powers speak of honor, science, and reason. Yet newspapers thunder with rumors of war.

At a farewell gathering before enlistment, McCrae tells a young medical student:

“Medicine heals one man at a time. War wounds entire generations.”

Justin Trudeau plays McCrae with restrained emotion — intellectual, compassionate, but increasingly haunted by what he senses is coming.

As troops sail from Montreal toward Europe, bands play patriotic songs while families wave flags. Young soldiers imagine glory. McCrae quietly watches the shoreline disappear.

He carries a notebook in his coat pocket.


ACT II — THE YPRES SALIENT

The film shifts into chaos at the Second Battle of Ypres in Ypres.

The trenches are hellish:

  • rats crawl over sleeping men,
  • rain floods dugouts,
  • artillery shakes the earth like earthquakes.

McCrae works in a field hospital where the wounded arrive endlessly.

A central supporting character emerges:
Alexis Helmer — charismatic, optimistic, and fiercely loyal. Helmer jokes that after the war he wants to build a house overlooking a lake in Canada.

Then the Germans unleash chlorine gas.

Green clouds roll across no man’s land.

Men choke, claw at their throats, and stumble blindly through poison fog. McCrae improvises medical responses with urine-soaked cloth masks as panic spreads.

The film becomes increasingly surreal:

  • church bells ring in abandoned villages,
  • horses wander burning fields,
  • poppies sway beside corpses.

McCrae begins losing faith in civilization itself.

After a devastating artillery strike, Helmer is killed.

Because the chaplain is unavailable, McCrae personally conducts the burial ceremony. Rain falls softly as he reads scripture over his friend’s grave.

The next morning, exhausted and unable to sleep, he notices red poppies growing among the crosses.

He takes out his notebook.


ACT III — THE POEM

In near silence, McCrae writes:

“In Flanders fields the poppies blow…”

The film intercuts his writing with:

  • dead soldiers,
  • grieving mothers in Canada,
  • amputees returning home,
  • children reading letters from fathers who will never return.

The poem spreads through newspapers across the Allied world.

But McCrae feels conflicted. He worries the poem may inspire more young men to volunteer for slaughter rather than mourn the dead.

Agent Intrepid Deux II’s screenplay frames the poem not as propaganda, but as a cry from a wounded civilization trying to remember its humanity.

McCrae continues treating soldiers until illness overtakes him. The war consumes millions.

Near the end of the film, an older nurse asks McCrae if poetry can truly change anything.

He replies:

“Maybe not. But forgetting changes everything.”


FINAL SEQUENCE

The movie ends decades later.

A child places a red poppy beside a war memorial in modern-day Ottawa.

The camera slowly pans across faces from different eras:

  • First World War soldiers,
  • Second World War veterans,
  • peacekeepers,
  • refugees,
  • grieving families.

McCrae’s voice returns one final time:

“To you from failing hands we throw the torch…”

The screen fades to black as solitary trumpet notes play “Last Post.”

A single red poppy remains on screen.


Themes

  • The cost of war versus patriotic myth
