FADE OUT
EXT. SOHO - EVENING
open with a shot of a street sign (something to do with sex)
titles underneath read "Soho, London"
a few different shots of signs, shops, bars, people etc
around Soho help us establish where we are.
on the last shot we pan around from where we are to a small
alleyway and hold this shot for a moment.
(titles such as the the cast, directors, producers
distributors etc appear on screen throughout)
in slow motion we see our lead come from around a corner and
run down the ally towards camera. he is then chased by a
group of five rowdy guys.
they catch up to him, surround him and beat him up
they then leave him in the ally and run towards us and past
camera
CUT

picks himself up and then leans against the wall
(voice over from the interview)
LEAD

clearly

alley
