Source text - Spanish EXT. BOSQUE DEL AJUSCO - DÍA
EXTREME WIDE SHOT DE UN BOSQUE.
Silencio y calma total.
Dos personas entran a la toma, ellos son LUIS y NINA (34 Y 30 respectivamente).
Nina se abre paso entre los arbustos, mientras que Luis la sigue insistentemente. Ambos discuten, pero por la distancia no escuchamos qué es lo que se dicen.
La discusión sube de tono cuando Luis se hinca, extendiendo sus brazos hacia ella ¿Una propuesta de matrimonio?
Enseguida, una ventisca comienza a sacudir las copas de los árboles. Ambos hacen un esfuerzo para ser tumbados por la intensidad de los vientos.
Algo en el cielo se roba la atención de Nina. Ella queda petrificada.
Luis sube la mirada. Están en shock.
V.O DE MUJER
Señor Kadinski, Necesito que me diga si usted consumió alguna sustancia psicoactiva, recreativa, o droga alucinógena, durante, antes o después del incidente. Nuestros reportes aseguran que el asiento de su automóvil estaba cubierto de alcohol cuando fue encontrado.
Hay silencio.
Translation - English EXT. AJUSCO FOREST - DAY
EXTREME WIDE SHOT OF A FOREST
Complete peace and quiet.
Two people enter the shot. They are LUIS and NINA (34 and 30 years old, respectively).
Nina makes her way through the bushes, while Luis doggedly follows her. They are arguing but we cannot hear what they are saying to each other because of the distance.
The argument heats up when Luis gets down on his knees, extending his arms toward her. Is this a marriage proposal?
Immediately afterward, a strong wind starts shaking the tree tops. They both make an effort not to be knocked over by the intensity of the wind.
Something in the sky draws the attention of Nina. She is petrified.
Luis looks up.
They are in shock.
VO FEMALE
Mister Kandinsky, I need you to tell me if you used any psychoactive or recreational substance, or a hallucinogenic drug, before, during, or after the incident. Our reports state the seat of your car was drenched in alcohol when it was found.
There is silence.
