portrait 

A crafted photograph of an individual. The image must be an experience of the person telling a story and giving the viewer information about the person. Shopping mall photo stores rarely take the time to create a portrait. Those businesses make template shots of humans. They all look the same, but people are not!

But in Act 2 she says more and she has to say this "Basically, it's about this religious camp that was turned into a human experiment prison...
