USC Cinematic Arts Program

Hello, I am currently applying to the USC Cinematic Arts for Film Production and I have a question about the writing sample. I am doing the describe a concept for a feature-length movie, fiction or documentary, which you would like to develop. I would like to find out if you can make yours based on an historical event? I am very interested in history and want to develop something historical.

Thank you for your time!
