[#FLExploreFilm] A short script

A short script:

​

INT. ROOM

FADE IN

A YOUNG MAN is sitting huddled in the center of a room, on a heart shaped carpet on the floor. He has a vague distant expression on his face. He is wearing a dirty A-shirt (vest) and boxer shorts, and is bare feet.

Behind and all around him, the room is all girly. Painted in shades of pink and white, with flowers, rainbows, fairies and unicorns. The furniture is white: a well made bed, a chest (at the foot of the bed) a closet and a shelf full of dolls. There are no windows.

A DOOR LOCK is heard.

In front of him, a white door opens. A BEARDED MAN enters the room. He is tall, strong, blond, with long hair, gathered in bunches (ponytails) on both sides of his head. He is wearing eyeliner and a "sweet lolita" dress.

Outside, behind the BEARDED MAN, there are two suited bodyguards on each side of the door.

While the door is opened, it can be heard a crowd cheering at distance.

YOUNG MAN​

You know you won't get away with it, right?

BEARDED MAN

I don't care. I'm just doing my job. You know what you have to do.

BEARDED MAN gives the YOUNG MAN an object and leaves the room, closing the door behind him.

The YOUNG MAN examines the object.

CLOSE UP at the HAND

On the opened hand of the YOUNG MAN there is a lipstick.

FADE TO BLACK
