Design of an English film in Indian Context - City in Water!!!

*name may change. but concept won't.

Across the City

an english film based on an asean City

(one-line by pratheep g nayar)

Focus:

The city is sinking…or sunk! Yes, may be it is a disaster ..near your foot !
A disaster at your door step…no, inside your home !...my home !
Before believing it, it took you... me up !
Oh God!! What later...?!!!
It happens to this city …my city (back ground a city ! ), where the people never knew / know about any natural calamity. How to go…where to go... if something happens…or will it happen to me…oh! some fake believers that look at this it only happen to others…are we permanent ...permanently settled for ever…or secured…all these question arises.

Buldingsss...Constructions ...hmm :))) in big way...without any ethics...!!!!
Many many man-made dwellings, hazardous constructions, dams….won't it gradually affect the course of nature and its life.  Rocks and mountains are leveled to lands, lands are made out of rivers and fields filled and leveled with rocks, mud, earth, sand, and so on.Buildings are REAL ESTATES ! Is it ???!

When these limitless constructions of course go in unplanned way and which have no controls other than welcoming direct hit of natural calamities such as Tsunami, etc. Is the time it becomes difficult for the nature to survive as its own. Simple logic is nature does it ‘as a matter of its existence’ !!! Can't it ???!

Is it because of lack of education in a society or state ?  Or is it only because of limitless increase of greediness ? Or taking everything granted for self and selfishness ?

Such cases go knowingly or unknowingly create a lot of fear, and curiosity or anxiety in the minds of some thinking animals who wants the earth be continued. / maintained in same even after us and our generations and even thereafter for decades. Is it bad ???!.

When some living anti-social animals go cruel with nature, forgetting the matter of co-existence and  all for matter of their existence, it all become self-goals one day. Not bad !

It is for those thinking social animals to come forward and join hands with a dream educating some illiterate &ignorant rich !!! hmm:))) '-' :~ %   {*_*}
 

Let this not be an awareness program. But feel it when you attract your own disaster.

Story

Nilesh Kumar Sawant, an all-round, passionate is a Salsa trainer introducing salsa and other dance forms in an upcoming metro city like Cochin. He takes the classes for all ages.He gives a channel interview. Along with many, a family consisting of a mother and daughter too came shifted to the city from a village for making his classes. It was Jameela and her mother Rubina.

This could happen only due to her father’s accidental divorce to her mother Rubina.

Jameela had a net-chat friendship with Sawant for more than 2 years. She was quiet enthusiastic and was interested in learning Salsa from his chat friend and expressed it many times to Sawant through net. He explained a little through net live video classes. That made her much aggressive in learning Salsa especially to meet her lover Sawant.  However, her father being a typical orthodox introvert, opposed for it. But the time at which, he divorced her mother as an accidental step from him, could rather becomes an opportunity for her to get the way for her to go for the salsa classes in the city.

Jameela wants to rush to the Salsa club to join the class. Her taxi goes via various wide and narrow roads of the city. Few incidents take place on route, where she sees strange and new experiences as a village girl.

Classes went on going on with live music / band. drummers are on Jamba. Sawant while stepping with class maintains the eye on a wall watch. Why Jameela hasn’t come. He looks out through the window. Suddenly a car stopped. Sawant could see this. Jameela steps out. Not waiting for the lift, Jameela prefers up by stair. At the entrance the billing clerk accepts her admission after filling up a small form and taking payment.

A lady assistant gives her tights and instructs for change. She comes after changing cloths. Suddenly a big nNoisZe!  ;;; lights went off !!!

dum KuDuMKdumkdum …Oh!..Ah ! ! Oh ! ! H ou..God....What’s happening…some whipping…some little crying…

[Viewers feel insecure]

Everything goes in dark ! and sounds sorrow

Now everything went off. Day comes as the sun. No city now. Oh ma god !  many ...many many…oh! almost all lost lives. seen swollen dead bodies in large number. Swollen pets and other in cages....domestic animals...birds....damaged planes, trains,  buses, cars...bikes, etc. Some are now lying at unidentified and different places. wet passports, currencies, certificates.... gold jewelries,  ornaments. swollen bride with ornaments &  groom....a vanished shooting place... MLA’s car in hanging... very breath-stopping pathetic scenes.  

choppers drops food packets. military takes up the maintenance of the city. Volunteers seen removing the bodies. Putting together and burns it by gasolene.   

Day in its peak. The few survived people of the city moved to a place for need of shelter. They are tired of walking towards a strange place. All lost everything. almost walk with bare foot

Oh..!!!!.

Few walk with inhibitions. Few with lost memories…and wishes..

Again sad.. no food…and distressed. Few people recollecting their old days. Their life with all luxuries. Now lost everything / everyone. Walking very emotional. few fight each other. Few curse themselves. Some remembering what the astrologer said. And some recollects these as result of the bad doings.

First group reached to one meadows. Trying to settle down.   

Experiences and flash backs. A love story within…with an interesting climax…
