Script

Girl
INT. APARTMENT LIVING ROOM- EARLY MORNING
A light comes on in the bedroom
We see her packing and picking up her luggage

EXT. IN THE CAR - SUNRISE
We see the girl driving and the changing scenery
She travels from city to country

EXT. CITY - EARLY EVENING
We see the sunset as she drives through the city

EXT. PARENT'S HOUSE - SUNSET - FLASHBACK
She pulls up to her parents house and her parents greet her

EXT. PARENT'S HOUSE - SUNSET - PRESENT DAY
She gets out of the car alone

INT. PARENT'S HOUSE - EVENING
She goes into the kitchen, hearing her mother's voice indistinctly

INT. KITCHEN - EVENING
We see her in the kitchen alone. She goes up to the fridge and sees a note. She picks it up:
Have all the food you want, don't forget to take the birds out.
Much love,
Mom and Dad

INT. DINING ROOM - NIGHT
She looks at the birds and opens the cage. The bird bites her. She closes it quickly.

INT. BEDROOM - NIGHT
She sets her luggage down and sits on the bed. We see her eyes shifting in thought.

INT. CHURCH - DAY - FLASHBACK
We hear her parents talking indistinctly while watching her sitting calmly. We then see her sitting with her parents in the church

INT. CHURCH - DAY - PRESENT DAY
We see her wandering through the church looking at the stained glass windows. She opens the front doors of the church to bright sunlight

EXT. BEACH - DAY - FLASHBACK
We see her walking along the beach, watching the seagulls, her parents walking ahead of her talking indistinctly. We see her walking alone again. She sits on the sand watching the waves.

INT. LIVING ROOM - DAY
She walks into the living room and sits on the burgundy couch looking into the sunroom.

INT. SUNROOM - DAY - FLASHBACK
Her dad plays with the dog on the floor, laughing while her mom sits calmly by a window flooded with light.

INT. DINING ROOM - DAY
She enters the dining room and looks at the birds. She opens the cage hesitantly. The bird comes out calmly, then flies away. She watches, unsure, then the bird comes and lands on top of it's cage, watching her.

INT. BEDROOM - DAY
She walks towards the mirror slowly, looking around the room at her old things. She goes up to the mirror. As she moves closer, we see her eyes shift, almost in fright. We see in the mirror a reflection of herself holding a videocamera. The sound of the camera rolling grows louder, then cuts to black.
