The Script

Establishing Shot- Down a street, all the houses look the same. Camera moves to a house and to the front door/window (tbd).
Cuts to close up of a picture of Mike and friend on oil rig. Julia turns over the picture to see writing on the back.
Phone rings.
Julia picks up "Hello?"
She listens to the phone. "Yes"
"What's happened?" she covers mouth and sits down to stop herself from falling. she turns on the tv to see a news reader talking about an oil rig fire. you see it on fire and words scrolling along the bottom 'Massive explosion on oil rig, no bodies found'.
Julia has tears running down her face as she holds the phone to her ear still, she isnt saying anything, just has her hand covering her mouth and tears running down her face. she is breathless-shocked (MUST BE SHOWN).
(child) Jason walks in and looks at his mum crying. camera zooms in on eyes and ends in a bright white flash.
