Film Script v2

FADE IN:

Scene 1 - The Beginning of The End

EXT. - DAY

Clouds speed past in the sky.

The sound of a car getting closer can be heard as we tilt down to see a large field closed off by tall, ruined walls.

A figure can be seen stumbling into the middle of the field.

As the figure falls to the ground a car comes into shot.

The person in the car gets out and runs to the collapsed figure.

ALEX
Tanya… Tanya… are you ok?

TANYA
(Mumbling)
Alex… al…

ALEX
(Whispering)
Everything’s ok, you’re safe now!
(pause)
You’re safe now!


Scene 2 – You’re safe now!

INT. - NIGHT

TANYA is awoken by the sound of a car pulling up.
She struggles to free herself but cannot slip out of the rope.
A figure walks into the cabin.
TANYA
Noo… (sobbing) please… not again.

The figure takes a needle to TANYA’S neck. While doing so he places something there then fiddles with the rope at the back.
As TANYA falls unconscious she overhears the figure on the phone.

CAPTOR
I don’t care how you get the information from your father. Imagine what the head of MI6 will say when he finds out I have both his daughters under my control!
(Pause)
Do I need to remind you I have your sister. Get the information and we'll trade tomorrow at 2.00. The Carpark.

EXT. - DAWN

TANYA wakes up. She notices that she is alone and notices the phone sitting on the table.
She once again makes an attempt to free herself. She smashes the chair and grabs the phone.
She scream’s when she realises there is no signal.
She then begins to run.
A car engine can be heard getting closer. Panicked, TANYA runs into a green house to hide.
She waits for the moment her CAPTOR goes into the cabin and begins to sprint.


Scene 3 - The Trade

EXT. - DAY

ALEX waits for the CAPTOR to appear in her car.

ALEX
What am I doing? This is treason!
ALEX slams against the steering wheel. The car horn sounds. She rests her head on the steering wheel.

She is startled by a car and snaps up. The captor is a hundred yards forward. She notices he doesn’t have TANYA.

ALEX
She’s not there! She’s not there!


As the captor walks forward, ALEX speeds off in her car.


Scene 4 - Signal and Rescue

EXT. - DAY

TANYA falls to the ground after running for so long.
She checks the phone for signal, gets some and begins to laugh. She dials her sister’s number.


TANYA
Alex… Alex… (sobbing)
(pause)
I’m in the woods… there’s some ruined walls about… I see a big gravel field in front of me.
(pause)
You know where I am.
(pause)
I’ll stay right here.


Scene 5 - The End Of The Beginning

EXT. - DAY

TANYA stumbles into the middle of the field.
She falls to the ground as ALEX’S car comes into shot.
ALEX gets out and runs to TANYA.

ALEX
Tanya… Tanya… are you ok?

TANYA
(Mumbling)
Alex… al…

ALEX
(Whispering)
Everything’s ok, you’re safe now!
(pause)
You’re safe now!

TANYA
Alex… I don’t think…

ALEX
Sssh, It’s ok.

TANYA
I don’t think this was ever about… me!


ALEX comes to a sudden conclusion. She searches TANYA. On the back of her neck she finds a tracker.

TANYA
Wha… What are you doing?

ALEX stands up in shock. BANG! The CAPTOR is revealed behind her. He swings a branch toward her head.
THE END
