A treatment consists of a written condensation of a proposed film or TV dramatic production. It covers the basic ideas and issues of the production as well as the main characters, locations, and story angles.
In part, its purpose is to sell the proposal to financial backers and major stars. Treatments should be attention-getting and interesting to read. They are written in the present tense, and often read like a short story. Treatments cover the full story sequence. They typically contain some key scenes (script dialogue that is, or will be, in the script).
