- FADE IN:
- EXT. BALCONY - DAY
- ANGIE spins on the balcony, dancing slowly to music playing from an old radio as it spits out crackling tunes.
- She grabs a colorful scarf and dances with it, the colors popping brightly against the dull sky.
- She spins, smiling through the scarf, lost in the music and the moment.
- There is a loud banging on the window, but she keeps spinning.
- She is lost somewhere in a different world.
- Her feet tap against the cracked floor of the balcony, stopping, turning, sliding.
- Her arms move sinuously in the air, and the scarf catches the breeze, blowing it around her face.
- She laughs out loud as she turns.
- The banging gets louder.
- The world stops.
- Angie has reached over and turned the music off.
- The light slides out of her eyes, and they seem to lose color.
- She ties the scarf to the balcony railing, and it's red tail trails off the edge, still dancing in the wind.
- She peers through the dirty screen.
- A large man stands in the room, unzipping his pants.
- He has already taken his shirt off, and stands in a sweat-stained t-shirt under a slowly whirling fan.
- She closes her eyes, trying to hold onto a moment already lost, then opens the door leading into the small room.
- She draws the curtains, leaving them slightly open.
- The man pushes her to the floor in front of him.
- FADE TO BLACK.
