Scene opening: Still shots approaching a large city, Skyscrapers and small buildings from afar, CLICK, CLICK approaching…. CLICK, a large avenue, CLICK, a small street, CLICK, a broad side of a small park. A Gazebo painted green with gray columns and concrete floor; green benches around; a small water fountain, people in the benches, children playing and chasing pigeons. Picture comes alive with the loud noise of many pigeons taking off scared by the children.

Panning from left to right slowly up to the gazebo on the far right corner of the plaza. Slow close up to a body sprawled on the rough concrete floor of the gazebo. From the soot blackened and broken toed tennis shoes with dirty toes sticking out, upwards the torn, dirty and faded olive drab army fatigues, to what seemed an inflated chest due to five T Shirts worn one over the other; the one on top reads PUEBLO in large red cursive letters; up to a dirty but handsome face, with a scraggly unkempt beard, topping to a dirty and torn baseball cap with faded NY letters; covering long dirty black and white dreadlocks or badly knotted hair. A medium sized brown multi-mix breed male dog curled in front of his face. Back to his chest, a small movement for shallow breathing is the only indication of life. Another fluttering noise from the flock of pigeons and the cocky Coo Coo from pigeons walking near this wretched human.
