Description
This part of the story is from Line1 A3.
Ali went back home and the ginger man told him the truth.
Outside House, when Ali came back
EXT – DAY OUTSIDE OF ALI’S HOUSE
Even though it was daytime, the scene still looks like night time because of the huge black skydome.
Ali arrived at his house. We can see the scenery around the
house.
Ali saw the ginger man sitting on his doorstep. As Ali
getting closer, the ginger man noticed him.
GINGER MAN
((stands up, seems happy)
Oh! You’re back! I’ve been waiting for
you for 4 hours.
ALI
Aren’t you dead?
GINGER MAN
yes, I am……NO!
I’m still standing in front of you.
You see, a complete and healthy man.
Take me inside, I’ll tell you what
happened.
Ali entered the door, the ginger man followed him.
Inside House
Ali and ginger man got into the house. The house was dusty，
the plants withered. Ali opened the windows, patted the dust
off the chairs. Ali and ginger man sat down together.
ALI
From beginning to end I didn’t figure
out what happened. The less you want
something to happen the more likely it
is to happen.
GINGER MAN
You don’t want to see me, right?
hahaha.
ALI
Yes,
((Ali didn’t look at ginger man)
It’s all because of you.
GINGER MAN
Yeah, I’m really sorry.
ALI
((stand up, walk towards balcony)
But you were dead, why do you come
back?
GINGER MAN
I’ve always been alive. I never blamed
you.
ALI
((Looking into the distant)
He would never come back.
GINGER MAN
Who?
ALI
A giant.
GINGER MAN
Oh…you’ve been there.
ALI
If I didn’t go there, he would not
die.
GINGER MAN
You killed a giant?!
Ali stood on the balcony didn’t talk any more.
balcony
INT – DAY BALCONY
walked to the balcony, stood next to Ali.
GINGER MAN
What a lovely city.
That day, when I leave your house, I
went to the river, take a boat home.
The surrounding environment began to change, it was no longer
a city, but a river. There is a boat on the river with 2
people on it, one is boatman, another is ginger man.
GINGER MAN
I had a very happy chat with the
boatman. The boatman said that my
basket and silk are very beautiful and
wanted to buy them. So I agreed.
Something I was leaving the boat,
something floated on the river. It was
a corpse.
The river fades out, a street appears.
GINGER MAN
The boatman took my basket, silk and
the corpse find you, told you I was
dead. He asked for money from you,
then, he went to the police station,
reported you, and received the rich
man’s bounty.
You were taken to prison, and you
would definitely be chosen to go to
the giant’s house.
The scenery outside the balcony restored to its previous
appearance.
A short silence.
ALI
Do you want a cup of tea?
GINGER MAN
Yes, please.
They walk to the living room.
Someone outside the house shouted:
What’s that! What’s that!
Ali and ginger man looked outside, in the distance, there was a huge beam of light was shooting to the sky.
