The document provides a detailed summary of the scenes and events in a short film. It describes the camera moving outward to reveal more of the setting, including a door with a shadow of a character and a ringing phone. Dialogue reveals a sense of panic as two men with guns confront the characters. More scenes show bodies on the ground and a car crashing while music plays. The camera then shows a view from inside a surveillance van. At the end, a teenage boy on a skateboard takes a photo of the scene instead of calling for help.
