this whole goddamn jungle.

- Okay okay okay okay.

Just a minute.

- What are you doing?

- Just a minute.

- Oh, Adam.

- Here it is.

After you, my lady.

- You are not helping, you know.

- No no no no.

- What?

- This can't be f***ing real.

- What?

No.

Oh god no.

- Just a little to the right.

We'd be hitting more trees,

right?

F*** you!

- I just wanted to help!

- Shut the f*** up.

Shut the f*** up.

That whole sh*t was your idea,

not mine!

- I didn't ask

you to come with me!

- No, you truly didn't.

But you f***ed this up.

- Where are you going?

- I'm not about to spend

a night next to a cemetery

if you don't mind.

- Wait for me.

- Tomorrow we'll

go where I say, okay?

- Sure.

- Understood?

- Yeah, I understood.

I'm so sorry.

- Try to get some sleep.

Sh*t.

Sh*t.

Calm down, calm down.

I hear dogs.

- What?

- I hear dogs.

- I heard that sound, back at

the cars.

- But I can't hear it now.

- Maybe it's gone.

- I'll check it.

- No!

Don't go!

Please don't leave me here!

Maybe I should come with you.

- Just stay here in the tent.

Shh.

- Be careful.

- Shh.

It's okay now.

Just stay here.

- Adam?

Adam?

Adam?

Adam?

Adam!

Adam!

- It's me.

Let's go, let's go.

Come with me.

- Adam, I saw it,

it was there, it was there.

- Hurry, hurry.

We need to go.

- I see someone.

- Where?

- By that tree.

Oh god, oh god!

What are you doing?

- I'm looking for her phone.

Sh*t.

- Maybe she's alive.

Adam.

Adam.

We have to keep going.

- Check her pockets too.

Check her pockets.

Flashlight out.

- It's coming after us!

Hurry.

- What is that?

The car?

- Oh my gosh, the car.

- Please let it work.

- Come on, let's go.

- Oh!

- Oh my god!

- Sh*t.

- I'll just check the

phone, okay.

Oh god.

- No signal?

- No, sorry.

Oh god.

F***.

- Better get off the trail

though,

it might be after us.

Look, it's a house.

- A house?

- Yeah.

- Where?

Go, just go, knock the door.

- Sh*t.

- What?

Just knock the door.

Closed?

Just let's find the key.

Oh, Adam.

Open it, open it.

Come on.

Come on, come on, come on.

- Inside, inside, inside.

- Okay, okay, just close it.

Adam, Adam!

- Open the door Thora!

He stab him!

- What?

He stab him!

- What happened?

- I was just following the plan.

You escaped.

- Oh god.

- I wanted to follow the plan.

The movie.

- Get ambulance right now!

- But...

- call the f***ing

emergency line,

you're the only one who speaks

Hungarian!

Help's on its way.

- I saw it.

I saw it.

- Just don't talk, just don't

talk.

Adam, just don't talk, okay?

Please don't die.

- I won't die.

- We will have to be

really damn precise for this.

- That's what I'm saying.

We have to react to everything

right away.

Anything can happen.

- I just don't know why

we can't tell the guy too.

He seems smart enough.

- Yeah but that's how it

will be the most authentic.

Just trust me on this.

I checked the guy, he's a

mystery nut.

Not to mention that his

mother and girlfriend

died in a car crash where he was

driving.

- Damn, that's pretty rough.

- Yeah.

- Can you

really put this stuff on me?

- I can put it on you in

the car if that's what

you would like.

Just have to go carefully.

- What about the prosthetic

hand?

- It arrive on Friday, the

maker posted it yesterday.

- Good.

Will the cars be there?

- Yes, I know a few people

who can help us out.

- And what about the

homeless guy?

- Head of an acting group.

He said he would be

very much up for playing

in a good movie.

- You having been an exchange

student is a godsend.

- Well I know the area well

enough to draw you a map.

Holy sh*t, that's terrifying.

- Wow, it's even better

than in the pictures.

- It cost an arm and a leg, too.

And I just finished mixing

the sound for it as well.

- How many speakers did you

order?

- 15, that should be enough.

And I always have an extra just

for sure.

- Will that be okay?

- Don't worry.

I'll handle it.

I've always been good with this

stuff.

So yeah, the motel, don't

forget to scare him there

if he goes back to the room.

- Yeah, that

would make a good scene.

- Yeah, okay so then the old

outpost.

- Is there anyone around there?

- No, just hobos.

One of my friends said that

those houses

haven't been used in more than

10 years.

Soldiers and their families

used to live there.

- It has character.

- Sure does.

- We will push the car

about 200 meters away.

You have to be the one to go

that way.

You can't let him go that

way otherwise he'll find it.

- Okay but just

don't forget that you

will have to drain the gas.

- Leave that to us.

- And won't animals

destroy the crosses?

- We will pull them out the

night before, don't worry.

- You have to be really clever

once you are in the house.

- And you better hold your

breath while playing dead.

- I'll be the deadest dead

person that ever lived.

- Okay everybody if it all works

out

we'll have a decent movie

in our hands just for sure.

- Well festivals might still

not give a sh*t about us

but at least we can make

some money out of this.

And the industry will notice us

too.

- And whenever you can

keep it rolling and let him

have the camera sometimes as

well.

After all, you are the main

character.

Okay.

Turned out pretty good.

Can barely smell it all at.

I mixed it up with sawdust.

Has Manny sent the money yet?

- Sure we have the money.

- Thora.

Are you sure you're wanting to

help us?

- Why not?

You know the saying.

There's no use crying over

spilled milk.

Okay, we can go.

No, please, no, please!

No, no!

- Yay, a good actress.

- Thank you.

That's a great opening scene.

- Yeah, you were right.

Have we reached the next step

on the sound of the moth too?

Everything will be more than

enough.

- Thank you.

- We are always

fighting ourselves and others.

We try desperately to achieve

the things

we might not even want anymore.

We keep ignoring so many things

or allow them to pass us by.

And we don't realize

what's really important.

Or worse, we don't even want to.

I saw it.
