Close-up of an old, worn photograph of a young boy and a man. The photograph is slightly crumpled, and the edges are frayed.
Memories of a time long past, tethering the present to the shadows of yesterday.
Elena and Luca sit in a dimly lit room, the photograph lying between them on a table.
Elena Russo (FL)
Who is this?
Luca Moretti (ML)
My father. He disappeared when I was a kid.
Flashback
Luca Moretti (ML)
(Luca as a child, searching frantically through the city streets)
A young boy lost in the maze of the city, searching for a ghost.
Elena Russo (FL)
(Present day, Elena's eyes widen in realization)
Elena Russo (FL)
So, you’re looking for him?
Luca Moretti (ML)
(Luca shakes his head, a bitter smile on his lips)
Luca Moretti (ML)
I was. Now I’m looking for answers. Why he left. What happened to him.
Elena Russo (FL)
(Elena leans forward, her voice soft but firm)
Elena Russo (FL)
Maybe we can find those answers together.
Luca Moretti (ML)
(Luca stands up, pocketing the photograph)
Luca Moretti (ML)
You’re persistent, I’ll give you that.
Elena Russo (FL)
(Elena stands as well, matching his determined gaze)
Elena Russo (FL)
I’m not giving up until I get to the truth.
They exit the room, stepping into the bustling city streets
In the heart of the city, a new partnership is forged.
A shadowy figure watches them from a distance, hidden in an alleyway.
But in every shadow, danger lurks.
Close-up of the shadowy figure's hand holding a silenced pistol.
And some secrets are worth killing for.
Luca and Elena walk away, unaware of the looming threat.
As they delve deeper, the ties that bind will either break or tighten, sealing their fate.
