INT.ROOM – DAY

Sunlight evenly penetrates through a slightly ajar window. The wind curls the light curtains. We slowly see the light wallpaper.

As the show progresses, it becomes clear that this is the room of an old woman,aged about 80 years.

We quickly see pictures of a young and beautiful girl with curly hair, aged about 25-26 years, in different photos. In the first photo we see how she smiles broadly and joyfully, in the second she is in an embrace with a MAN, a man embraces with his back to the photo, here she also smiles, but a little more restrained.

On the third, TWO GIRLS aged about 7-8 and she aged about 35, with her husband all smiling and standing in an embrace, the children in the middle, they are joyful, they have no front teeth.

In the next photo, she is about 55-56 years old, standing in an embrace with her DAUGHTERS aged about 28-29 years and their TWO CHILDREN. In the next photo, she is aged 78-79 years old, sitting and smiling happily holding a BABY in her arms.

In the next photo there is a smiling BOY aged 3-4 years.

Let's move on. There are a lot of green flowers in pots in the room. Two armchairs and one rocking chair. A small coffee table. There are cookies baked by hand on the table. And there is a knitted scarf on the rocking chair.

GRANDMOTHER aged 82-83 years watering flowers in the room. With shaking hands from old age, she wipes the dust from the leaves of flowers. Next to her, a BOY WITH a PHOTO helps her, he waters the flowers with a small toy watering can. They look at each other and Grandma strokes his face. He looks at her smiling. The sun penetrates and brightly illuminates their face.

INT. ROOM – NIGHT

The boy is sleeping on the bed. Slowly opening the door, the grandmother's grandson, the MOTHER of a BOY aged 26-27, looks at them and smiles, puts his head behind the door. Showing her grandmother a sign of silence with her finger, she goes out and closes the door. Grandma is sitting next to the boy and closing the fairy tale book. Straightens the blanket on the boy, kisses him on the forehead and gets up, slowly goes to the desk and sits down at the table. A night light is on on the table. It contains three more books in a stack and a sheet of paper with a pen. She takes a pen in her shaking hand and starts writing.

VOICE (BEHIND THE SCENES GRANDMOTHER)

Dear grandson. It started in your time...

Grandma looks up and looks away. As if remembering something.

BLACKOUT:

EXT. DESERT – DAY

CREDITS:
2103

Moving through the desert. Sand storms are rising. It's getting dusty. The dust flies almost to the camera. The desert is over.

EXT. MOUNTAINS – DAY

The desert intersects with mountains. We go around the foot of the mountain. Skeletons of people lie on the rocks and the ground. Spinning around, we climb the mountains. An open passage is visible. Let's go in. A little further inside is covered with a dense brown material. Two MEN are standing behind him and holding a gun in their hands. We're moving on. Light penetrates from the open top, we look up and see glass solar panels from which light pours down. We look down and see a field where wheat and cotton grow. There are also several trees with fruits, apples, pears, peaches. People take care of trees and work in the field. We go further and go through the aisle, there is a room where people pray in their own way. We show different religious people. A Muslim recites prayer, bends down, greeting on both sides of the shoulders, makes dua. A Christian prays and makes a cross with his hand.

We quickly get out of the mountains, and

EXT. DESERT – DAY

We drive along deserted roads. We see sand storms again. It's dusty everywhere. Dust flies up to the camera. A long wall is visible in the distance. We go in that direction and slowly approaching we see a MAN IN RAGGED CLOTHES running away. He's very scared.

MAN (SHOUTING) Help! Somebody!

A MAN WITH A SPEAR is chasing him. A man in ragged clothes hides from us, and a man with a spear stops and aiming, throws his spear with force towards the fleeing man in ragged clothes. The sound of a spear hitting someone and a scream is heard. The sound subsides, A man with a spear rides to the side and carries away the body of another man by one leg, who has a spear sticking out on his back and there is a lot of blood in that place. They hide from us and we go further towards the long wall. As we approach, we see that the wall is long and high. We climb the wall. The wall is high. About 10 meters. And the beginning and the end are not visible. We rise and fall on the other side of the wall.

INT.WALL – DAY

Behind the walls there are GUARDS IN MASKS and in soldiers' clothes. We go looking at them further backwards. Then we turn around and see a large glass dome, it is very high.

INT. INSIDE THE DOME – DAY

We go through the white gate and see how MANY PEOPLE go back and forth. Everyone is dressed the same in shades of gray. In the corner there is a multi-colored playground where CHILDREN play happily. The tile is also white. In the very center is a long and large garden of colorful flowers and trees. Crops are also growing here, only there are more species here. We go further, in the corner of the room, we go there and see how TWO NURSES in white coats and a mask take tests from a 55-60-year-old MAN from the nose and throat, then one of them takes blood tests and flashes red in the room. A MASKED GUARD comes in and puts a mask on the man's face, takes him with him. The man does not resist. Let's go out after them and see that the man is looking to the right side, where people are standing and looking at us. Up close, we see the face of one 50-YEAR-OLD WOMAN. She's crying and looking at us. Then we see the man's face, he is also crying, but smiling encouragingly. Then we see how he will be carried away towards the doors from the dome. Where we came from. We turn around and see a crying woman sitting on her knees. A GIRL is sitting next to her and, drawing her to herself, hugs her and pats her on the back. She will also start crying and cover her mouth with her hand. We see all this without sound. Music is playing in the background. We go further and see white four-storey houses. They stand close to each other. Looking at them, we drive on and see the same building, the sign says: "CENTER FOR SCIENTIFIC EXPERIMENTS". On the white door is written: "UNAUTHORIZED ENTRY is PROHIBITED." We go through the door and go up to the second floor from the ground. A MIDDLE-AGED MAN is sitting -45-50 YEARS OLD in a white coat, this is PROFESSOR NIGHT. He is bending over working on the glowing golden color of the semicircle. He is concentrating on doing his job. His STUDENT FARRUKH, 30 years old, is sitting next to him. He is also working on a glowing semicircle. The semicircle on Night's hand will begin to glow more and he will happily start laughing. Then he takes another semicircle from Farrukh and starts twisting it with his hand. The same strong light will start coming from the semicircle. They both laugh and hug each other. They did it.
