POST PRODUCTION SCRIPT - 7th December 2015

Young boy: Kieran
Man: Michael

OPENING:

1. EXT: Opening montage

This opening montage will show clips of the two main actors getting up and how this part of their life, like many other aspects of their lives, is so different from each other. The montage does not include any dialogue hence the lack of a script for this part of the film.

The first shot of the montage includes the man waking up early and looking to his bedside table and picking up a picture. He sheds a tear and puts the picture down. The camera then focuses on the picture of his once happy family as he gets up to leave the room.

The second shot of the montage includes the young boy waking up in a dirty room and turns to his bedside table to find a cigarette. He sparks a cigarette and then proceeds to get up.

The 3rd shot of the montage includes the man in a nice bedroom putting on his tie whilst looking in the mirror.

The 4th shot of the montage includes Kieran looking in a dirty mirror putting his hood up.

2. EXT: Graveyard

The old man walks into the cemetery slowly. The old man is dressed in a suit, holding a bouquet of flowers and walking respectively through the cemetery towards a specific tombstone. He looks sad and depressed with his head looking down to the ground.

3. EXT: Tunnel scene

Kieran is loitering around in a tunnel located under a dual carriage way. He is looking suspicious and constantly looking both ways to see if someone is coming. He has one hand in his pocket and he is smoking a cigarette in the other. He is dressed in a full tracksuit and can be stereotypically associated as being a 'chav'.

Kieran looks left as he sees another young male enter the tunnel and walk towards Kieran. Kieran immediately throws his cigarette onto the floor and grabs the male by the neck pushing him up to the wall aggressively.

Kieran

Yo bruv where the fucks my money

Young male

*breathing heavily and stuttering*

Kieran

where the fucks my money

Young male
*breathing fast and heavy* I'll get it to you for 6 man..... Please man allow me i'm sorry

Kieran

*smiles*

4. EXT: Graveyard scene

The old man reaches the tombstone in which his wife's name is engraved. The old man takes a deep breathe and kneels down to place the bouquet on to the grave. A tear runs down the face of the old man as he closes his eyes for a moment. He then stands up and walks off with his hands in his pocket.

5. EXT: Drug deal scene

Kieran takes place in a drug deal with another young male. Kieran walks down an alleyway and very smoothly hands over a small bag of drugs whilst the other male hands him a £20 note. The two people then walk opposite ways down the alley. Kieran then emerges into a council estate in which he walks down the street.

5. EXT: Bridge scene

Kieran is walking down a bridge whilst talking on the phone and with a cigarette behind his ear. He walks past the old man who is stood looking out over the river. The boy when past him continues to look back and watch what the old man and what he is doing.

The old man then proceeds to try step up onto the edge of the bridge but fails to lift his leg up completely and stumbles back. The young boy consequently saw this and runs over to stop the man from proceeding with this suicidal intention.

Kieran

Oi! get down from there!

The End.
