SCENE I.

Set Up Shot:
Aerial view of man riding bicycle, too high up to make any distinction.

Cut: Handlebars, two old hands clutching metal.

Switch: back and forth between aerial view, handlebars, pedaling

Cut: wheel splashing through mud, puddles, any other nastiness

Cut: Aerial view, car almost crashing into bike, out of NOWHERE

Cut: Return to normal, happy-go-lucky biking.

(Music: happy-go-lucky music, almost Beatles 60’s music, no lyrics)

Cut: Aerial view, man gets off bike

Side shot: man walking, waist down, walks nonchalantly past dead bird with wing in the air, bugs swarm it greedily

1PV: man walking up to door, hand reaches out to touch tarnished doorknob
music fades, almost inaudible

“In your face” Loud unlocking of door sound effect.
Freeze frame. All music stops. Complete silence.
Text: ENTER JOHANNES.
Unfreeze. 1PV: man finished opening door and steps into house.
Voices are heard from another room. Man walks out of 1PV.
Camera continues to follow him.

Cut: Homely kitchen, two old women, one of them is PHILOME, JOHANNES’S wife of forty years. She is talking with a shady woman friend. There whispers stop abruptly as he enters the kitchen.

PHILOME
Where have you been?

JOHANNES
None of your goddamn business.

Philome gives her shady woman-friend a knowing look.

Cut: Johannes searching through cupboard for something. Philome’s friend leaves. Sound of door shutting. Silence.

PHILOME
I’m not going to be here for dinner. There are some leftovers in the refrigerator if you want to heat them up.

Johannes finds what he is looking for: a large bottle of rum. He pours himself a drink.

JOHANNES
Where are you going?

PHILOME
(Pause) None of your goddamn business.

C/U: Johannes shrugs.
Cut: Philome moves clears some plates and puts them next to the sink.
Cut: Philome is in foreground, washing dishes by hand. She does not wear rubber gloves. Her bleached hair is in slight disarray. In the background, Johannes takes his drink with him and walks out of the kitchen. Reaching to his mouth he pulls out his front teeth, which are fake, and drops them into the glass of water that Philome was drinking out of.
Cut: Black screen.
