The first shot the audience will see is a mid-shot using Nema as a centre point. Nema is wearing old clothes, portraying that she is working class and will be sitting on the floor against a dull coloured wall. Accompanying the shot of Nema will be a voice over narration, which is the first paragraph of the story that the film is derived from. The camera will zoom into a close-up of a ring that Nema is wearing whilst she is falling asleep. The audience will then see a moment of black to inject ambiguity. Using the shutter on the camera itself, there will be a constructed point of view shot as Nema is awakening and there is a knock on the door. After this, viewers will see a close-up of Nema's face as she has just woken up and then a close-up of her hand opening a door, with specific focus on the ring.
A mid shot of the two best friends presents the audience with an awkward confrontation of some sort which cuts to a medium close-up of Nema's face while Azia speaks. This is then cut to an extreme close up of Azia's eyes as she says "I'm sorry". There is then a pause in the dialogue; this pause will be filled with a long shot of the girls to portray suspense between the characters and to view the situation from a stranger's perspective, which the audience can identify with. You can then see the two girls from the waist up as Nema says "Just say it, Azia, please". A close-up of Azia follows as what she says is important and the speech she makes is very direct - the shot is reflective of this. An over the shoulder shot shows the reaction of the best friend who is clearly distressed by what she has just heard. The audience will then see both girls in shot to see the pair reaction in silent anxiety. Nema breaks the silence; the audience see both Azia and Nema in the mid-shot - this will show the change in body language. There is another cut of Azia's point of view, focusing on the room behind Nema. The camera stays on the point of view of Azia - a close up of Nema - until she speaks the last four words, "You are never alone", which show the audience Nema's reaction to these words. The audience is thrown, which shows the ambiguity of the situation and then it fades to black.
The audience will then see a long shot of Nema walking across her room and picking up a candle from the floor. This cuts to a close-up of Nema's hand holding the candle, and again the ring is noticeable. These movements will be accompanied by another narration by Nema. The audience will see the flame on the right of the screen while the focus is on the shadows on the wall.
