Treatment:
The film opens with a news
report, telling us that the process of ‘cloning’
has become illegal. The news report sound bridges into the opening establishing
shot, showing an unidentified man walking over a hill and trailing a large bag
behind him. He continues walking both suspiciously and with a sense of desired
anonymity. We are presented with a close shot of a bird, free and proving its
brainless nature. The man comes to an abandoned-looking train track which he
walks along as it is his path that leads him to his destination.
We are given an experience of
the nature around the track; one tuft of flowers which looks out of place. It
is though these flowers are the soul survivors of a wildlife massacre. The man
has slipped a map into his back pocket, and we are greeted with this. The map
is half-way out as though its struggle of escape has been defeated by tiredness
and the busting of lungs. The map is rescued by the hand of the man, like a
claw machine at a funfair, only it isn’t set to give out a
prize once every few hundred goes. The man peers with determination at the map,
carefully looking at it and gliding his eyes across the large paper. The map is
risky evidence that the illegal transaction has occurred, so he sets it a.flame
to it and leaves it to crumble and disappear from the earth. The man pushes
open the gate of the farm, and he creeks, creating an uncomfortable
noise.
There is a fast pan from the
man’s head to the farm. The barn is then shown. From a
distance, we see a farmer. He appears unsurprised that a man has set foot on
his field. The man greets the other man, and approaches him, diving
into conversation which our ears aren’t open to hear. The
farmer does a gesture of ‘follow me’, then the pair walk
across the field. There is then a track shot, showing multiple bodies. One may
be missing an eye and wearing an eye patch, whilst another one may have a
missing leg, or a missing head. The sky is the limit.
The pair then enter the farm,
violently throwing the bag onto the floor. The farmer slowly zips open the bag to reveal an exact replica of the man. It is his clone.
Nothing outdates faster than
the vision of the future.
The protagonist will be
dressed in casual clothes, appropriate for his apparent age. These will consist
of an oversized white and black checked shirt, along with skinny jeans and black
boots, the condition of his appearence will be poor, he will look slightly
fatigued and his Clothes will more than likely appear dirty and crumpled which
will have been caused by dragging a heavy bag through fields for a long
distance.
The location we will be using
will be a rural setting, this is in order to emphasise the fact that these so
called "Clone Farms" are illegal and have to be hidden away from
civilisation and The government due to the risk of prosecution the people who
make use of these clone farms would face if they were to be found out to be
using these "clone farms"
