Synopsis

Two people physically converge after a mysterious journey.

A modern-day (reworked) spy story.


Two principal characters (A and B) middle aged (40-50yrs). Other character (Mr C (Big), whose voice we hear, but his face is never revealed, and another unknown female.

Film starts with parallel edit*, starting with the individual journeys of the main protagonists. One will be centered in a train journey from Madrid (or other main city), the other from the southern coast of Spain (hinted to be from Morocco) .

(*split screen possibility ref. femme fatale (brian de palma)).

Gradually, we realize that the 2 men are not the most orthodox of characters, using subtle visual and linguistic clues, that hint (reinforce) their (almost) absolute control of the world that we live in.

We start the journey with a phone call to each of them from MR C (big).The message is initially the same, but there is a final order for one of the men (we don´t know which) to assassinate the other man..by using voice over separated from visual images of the men. His crime is developing a computer virus to “liberate” all the electronic communication systems in the world phone/3g/gps etc so that everyone can ´transmit´in real time.(diametrically opposite to 9-11etc. decentralized history.


When the men eventually meet, it is implied that they have had a long (35 yr) friendship, possibly with short bursts of flashback sequence. The film then concentrates on their journey using philosophical discourses as the contrast to the awe-inspiring backdrop of the andalucian countryside. Various topics are alluded to below in the quotes section.
