FINAL DRAFT




INICIO:


EL UNIVERSO


Oscuridad total... luego la via Lactea...


Un giro hacia la derecha.

El Sol, con su brillo incandescente...

Actividad solar... Una explosión, un remezón.

Una bola de fuego viene desde atras del astro y practicamente nos envuelve.

Otra ves, las estrellas.

UNA VOZ..

VOZ 1:

Listo para el regreso?


Otra voz

VOZ 2:

Es como un sueño hecho relidad...verdad?


VOZ 1:

No lo sabes, hasta que lo vives de nuevo...


CORTAR A:


OCEANO PACIFICO-DIA


COMENZAR CREDITOS


EN LA PANTALLA: DEDICADA A WILLIAM H. PRESCOTT (1796- 1859)


Desde el cielo azul... descendemos hacia un mar immenso...Un barrido de 180 grados


Nos muestra un mar infinito... Pelicanos y Gaviotas se nos acercan.


A RAZ DEL MAR


Ballenas revientan la tranquilidad con sus colas, Delfines entretienen nuestra mirada, saltando al unisono.


A lo lejos en el horizonte, apenas percibimos


unas islas...


CONTINUAR


Una pareja de islas nos dan la bienvenida.


Aves guaneras, las cubren casi a su totalidad.





CORTAR A: PARACAS-PERU-DIA


A VUELO de pajaro, nos acercamos a una costa.


SUPER IMPONER EN LA PANTALLA:"PARACAS, PERU"


Playas desiertas, Uno que otro Leon marino, y mas gaviotas sienten que pasamos por encima


Una brisa marina extraordinaria. La sentimos tan fresca


Nos adentramos entre las dunas y suelos aridos de pronto...


LAS LINEAS DE NAZCA


Las enigmaticas formas van apareciendo...


Formas estilizadas, y animales a lo largo de inmmensos desiertos.


EL COLIBRI.


Una forma muy llamativa


EL CONDOR


Sin cabeza, pero sorprendentemente trazado


EL MONO


Una espiral increible, sus formas muy "post modern"


Casi besando el suelo, la grava y el polvo... tomamos un ascenso para pasar por...las


LINEAS TRAPEZOIDALES


Forma de camino no asfaltado, lleno de grava y piedritas aridas, enigmaticas como el resto.


En el horizonte, vemos el comienzo de una cadena montañosa


Avistamos un ave oscura... es un CONDOR.


Nos adentramos en tierras mas altas al seguir este guia natural.


La creacion de miles de años se nos muestra


Estas cadenas tienen un nombre...


LOS ANDES


La cadena montañosa mas grande del mundo


formando un enlace de roca y nieve.


Valles Majestuosos, se reparten entre montaña y montaña.


descendiendo un poco, avistamos parches verduscos y cuadrados.


Producto de una civilizacion.. notamos que son cultivos


y una que otra choza andina.




EL VALLE


Un grupo de llamas, pasando por un camino muy empinado, estan siendo dirijidos por un niño andino


De diez años aproximadamente, un semblante chaposo. Un perro


suyo, esta ayudandolo, ladrando y manteniendo llamas .



NIÑO INDIO:

Bien Lautaro!


El empieza a tocar su Quena, para relajarse.


Mientras nos alejamos nos damos cuenta que estamos


entre 2 mountañas casi empinadas, y un rio...


EL RIO URUBAMBA


MUSICA DE FONDO:"CONDOR PASA"


Entre neblina y callejones amurallados


notamos algo insolito al subir sobre las montañas



HACIA LA CIMA


Unas construcciones, en forma de escaleras


terrazas de cultivo llamadas Andenes que nos dan la bienvenida a...

MACHU PICCHU


La fortaleza colosal encima de una meseta casi artificial


que casi por poco deja derramar estas ruinas por lo bien utilizado del terreno


Finalmente, como de calendario, tenemos a las ruinas en frente nuestro


Como inesperadamente nos acercamos a ella...

y al ver una ventana trapezoidal


psamos por ella y de pronto salimos a una nueva dimension... un nuevo tiempo...


DISOLVER A:


MACHU PICCHU-1532


EN LA PANTALLA:"MACHU PICCHU, 1532"


Las ruinas poco a poco cambian hacia lo que fue en esas epocas

Revelando su esplendor.


Incas centinelas en las partes mas altas, Mujeres Coyas llevando canastas con ofrendas


Hacia unas gradas que dirijen hacia el...


INTIHUATANA- br>

Una ceremonia sagrada, un jefe sacerdote INCA.


Palabras son dichas en quechua... eleva hacia lo alto un Vaso ceremonial


Bebe de la famosa CHICHA. Luego se las da a las virgenes del Sol


similares a Pocahontas en belleza


Un estremecedor sismo y un sonido de las montañas lose detiene


Se suma un dolor de estomago colectivo.


SACERDOTE INCA :br>
Taita Inti, Porque este mensaje...Porque la Ira?


Y nuestras cosechas, no han sido fructiferas


Acaso... es el comienzo del fin?


Las Coyas se arrodillan y se lamentan en su idioma, se cubren sus caras


Una plegaria del sacerdote es elevada al cielo azul.


De un punto central del Intihuatana, surge una poderosa Luz


que se dispara por una ventana trapezoidal


esta entidad energetica sube por


Las montañas aledañas, pasando por el...


HUAYNA PICHU.


Nuevamente, Un condor nos hace sentir el esplendor de las alturas y como un guia con alas


nos perdemos en la immensidad de las cadenas montañosas


Cientos de cadenas montañosas que aceleran nuestro paso para luego detenernos


en un pasaje natural en medio de immensas alturas



LOS ANDES-DIA


Una escena medieval: Conquistadores en camino hacia las alturas


Cañones, soldados abanderados, con estandartes de Espana. Indigenas y caballos en un cierto orden avanzan por un callejon angosto


Artilleria y mosquetes por doquier


SOBRE LAS ALTURAS


Soldados INCAS empujan sigilosamente immensas rocas y las posicionan


estrategicamante con no muy buenas intenciones.


Un comandante Inca se acerca a ellos


COMANDANTE INCA :

(en quechua) Detenerse, llego un mensaje imperial, paren todo!


(colera entre todos)


Nos alejamos en el firmamento y encaramos el sol y nos dirijimos


hacia el.



CORTAR A:


UNIVERSIDAD DE LEHIGH


LEHIGH UNIVERSITY-PENNSYLVANIA en pantalla


Superimposición del sol en el emblema de la universidad; un sol sobre un libro abierto en un fondo azul


nos alejamos y vemos el emblema en un poste del campus .


VISION PANORAMICA DEL CAMPUS


En medio de todo ubicamos un profesor dirijiendose a su salon de clases, es


MORGAN BUNSEN, 45, de


fisonomia blanca, barba bien cuidada. Saluda a estudiantes,

colegas y


connect his "Ipod", a modern teacher indeed.


ON HIS FINGERS


Scrambling up some songs, and looking for the right song.


ON HIS FACE


A song starts:"EVERYBODY WANTS TO RULE THE WORLD" from


"TEARS FOR FEARS". He hums and moves his head to the rhythm.


MORGAN:

Oh Gosh, these words are so


true.."welcome to your life... there


is not turning back..."


Morgan feels the music so appealing, students come


close to him, some others get surprised.


WE SCOOP AWAY into an aerial view. The University is in full view.


The OLD STEEL MILL from BETHLEHEM, PENNSYLVANIA is


also shown; the LEHIGH RIVER and


eventually into the Appalachian Mountains.back into


the clouds. An accelerated view through the clouds


slows down to come into a clear view.


VOICE1:

Is so real!


VOICE2/MORGAN:

Is a lifetime that could've been told


in a second...




CUT TO:


EXT. MISSISSIPPI RIVER-SUMMER OF 1960


As the clouds make way, We spot a stream; then a river.




SUPERIMPOSE:MISSISSIPPI RIVER, SUMMER OF 1960


EXT. SWIMMING POOL-MORNING CONTINOUS


A middle class house and a


pool in the back yard.


THE POOL


Boys jumping into it and screaming,


only one boy is about to do it but hesitates and turns


back, is Morgan at ten years old.


CHILD MORGAN:

(cold sweat) This is too much, I can't. I can't


A friend from the crowd comes and touches his


shoulders, Morgan turns and..


CHILD MORGAN:

No. I won't!


FRIEND:

Gosh Morgan, is like you gonna die.


CHILD MORGAN:

Don't bother me...!!


FRIEND:

Geez!, was about to ask you for a glass of water.


He walks away to his house's back porch...then


ON HIS EYES...


His dark brown pupils blink and then WE get lost into


its darkness trying to figure out what's wrong.


BEGIN FLASHBACK:


EXT. MISSISSIPPI RIVER BANK-1542-LATE NIGHT


ON THE SCREEN:MISSISSIPPI RIVER, MAY 1542


Match Morgan's eyes slowly into the dark of the night.


WE realize that a bearded man is put on a made


up table, he wears breast plates, a mangled helmet,


is put into a through made of live oak. He is in


his early forties.


A Cavalier comes to him with a deep silent sorrow. Is


his successor: LUIS MOSCOSO DE ALVARADO, late thirties.


Cavaliers huddle close and


gather around the dead body in silent grief. WE HEAR


indians shouting deep from within the forest. Some


soldiers desperately cover their Commander with leaves


and some soil inside the log. A strange person comes


from the back and puts a sword inside the made up


coffin and break into tears and quickly receives the


holly Ministrations from the priest. A TORN BIBLE is


put next to him. the indians increase their dangerous SHOUT.


MOSCOSO DE ALVARADO:

(to his chieftain) Don HERNANDO, My Governor, it's been


our honor to serve you. It was an.. we


never intended to give you a farewell


like this. It really breaks my heart


to know that this enterprise overcame


our expectations ... As a soldier from


BADAJOZ, I regretfully have to say good bye,


ADIOS my captain, may GOD be with you.


All of them AD LIB:"VIVA EL REY Y LA REYNA DE ESPANA!"


The body inside the log gets the last push into the


river stream; All put their helmets


against their chest, as a sign of a CABALLERO.


A soldier is about to fire an ARQUEBUS into the air but


is stop by a fellow soldier, knowing that it would


make it easier for the enemy to surround them at once.


Everybody AD LIB:"THE LORD BE WITH YOU..AND WITH YOUR


SPIRIT". A priest approaches as the last one


PRIEST:

(sign of the cross) ...Restare in pacem eternis, in the name


of the Father, the Son, and the Spirit, Amen


ALL:


AMEN! A sad view indeed. The end is nearing for these


Conquistadores...




THE INDIANS-THEIR APROACH


Appear on scene. The battle starts, some Spaniards quickly


depose of the log as though it were an unsuspected


action. Arrows impact the soldiers; the retreat is


almost unthinkable.


Arquebuses are being shot, but the cumbersome reload


gets them easy target of the wrath of the enemy. Some


Indians with torches burn their faces and


clothing, some get strangled and heads roll down too; is


the ultimate carnage; swords also take a toll on the


natives and some are crushed to death. Others are ran


over with the horses.




CUT TO:


EXT. THE LOG-MINUTES LATER-NIGHT


The rapids sink the log and we see something peculiar:


A hand is held up an grabs the edge of the log


CLOSE UP ON THE BODY


Like a miracle, the body is reacting out of


desperation..but eventually is sunk slowly


UNDER THE WATER


A murky scene underwater: Muddy, almost like from the


grave. A strong stream


of water covers our already


uneasy view.


VOICE1(V.O.):

This was too sad


MORGAN(V.O.):

Purification?, new beginning?. Our


KARMA?. A universal punishment?


END FLASHBACK.





EXT. SWIMMING POOL MORNING


Morgan AS A CHILD is about to open the


sliding door and turns back to see the swimming pool


and the kids.


CHILD MORGAN:

(to himself, sotto) Never will overcome this stupid fear!


A kid, his neighbor KEVIN, fifteen, middle size built


comes to him.


KEVIN:

What fear?


CHILD MORGAN:

Huh?. Nothing, Just was thinking loud.


KEVIN:

Yeah?. I guess I'm not the only one.


Do you know how to play Chess?


CHILD MORGAN:

Not really. But I can learn.


MORGAN'S POV


A little girl her name MARY ANN, brown hair,THREE years


old is spotted by Morgan's eyes ACROSS the pool


CHILD MORGAN


(to kevin) Who is she?


KEVIN:

huh? Oh, she is my little sister Mary Ann.


CHILD MORGAN:

She likes to...


KEVIN:

I know, I know, she loves to draw.


Mary ann's little hands are following the shape of the


square tiles.


ON HER FACE


Happiness and a thoughtful look


KEVIN(O.S.):

She likes to watch the HISTORY


CHANNEL, that is so boring but for her


is like candy in her mouth...


CHILD MORGAN(O.S.):

You're being too rude!


INT. MORGAN'S HOUSE-CONTINUOUS


They roll all the pieces from a box. Suddenly an


Indian chief toy falls too. Kevin grabs it. Morgan cannot


take his eyes from it. A quick blurred view of a real


chief walking toward him coming out of his tent...




KEVIN(O.S.):

Are You fine?


INT. MORGAN'S HOUSE-CONTINUOS


CHILD MORGAN:

Yeah, I'm fine. You think I can


learn how to play chess?


KEVIN:

Well my brother taught me how to swim,


you gotta start somewhere, you know?.


A quick view of Morgan playing Chess with the indian.


CHILD MORGAN:

(close up) I think I was. I mean I can learn this game


Morgan looking at the rook. A "deja vu" sensation


CHILD MORGAN:

I feel so strange, like I dreamed all this...


KEVIN:

(moving his piece) Well, I dreamed I was hungry and I


really am...


CHILD MORGAN:

So, this is how you move the Rook?


KEVIN:

Yes exactly... up and down left and...


CHILD MORGAN:

(catching up)Right...


KEVIN:

The chess board is made up of sixty


four squares, right?


CHILD MORGAN:

Let me see, right. I got that one.


KEVIN:

In contrasting colors. So the Chess


board is divided by eight horizontal


ranks and eight vertical files


CHILD MORGAN:

And the bishop cuts across the board


cutting through everything in its path.


KEVIN:

Exactly, each Bishop stays on the


diagonal color of its origin and


combined can control every square on the board


CHILD MORGAN:

Not a problem, so... hmm


KEVIN:

You learn quick... very good!


MONTAGE:THE ACTION OF THE GAME


A)Morgan, looking and thinking


B)Kevin's turn, nods and moves his Bishop


C)Morgan smiling and thinking on a move


CHILD MORGAN:

Is an amazing game!.


Suddenly Kevin drops the Queen out of the table, and


Morgan kneels down to get it... and astonishingly he sees a view as he STANDS UP....

His voice gets lost in the


walls from the cell, as an echo.


The cell gets clear and...


SMASH CUT TO:


INT. MATERNITY ROOM-NIGHT-1950

The back porch door is opened and MARY


Ann comes in with a RAGGEDY DOLL.


MARY ANN:

KEVIN:

Mary Ann, you should've stayed home in


the first place.


Morgan looks at her and smiles. She smiles back


VOICE1(V.O.):

I never knew how things are connected.


Life connects us with our Creator and our love ones


CUT TO:

his attention; his name: ANDREW PHILLIPS, early


twenties and the last one to enter


MORGAN:

Hey, are you okay son?


ANDREW:

Yes, why?


MORGAN:

You look as though you have a problem, huh?

formulas, He talks and breaks down the subject to his


students, some raise their hands and ask


questions. Andrew is seated, a tattoo is shown on his


wrist: Is an AMERICAN EAGLE.


ON MORGAN


MORGAN:

As you can see, this formulas are very


important before we cover the


Integrals in two weeks.


(pointing to the board) Differential equations are the back


bone of most of the upcoming


problems, I've seen kids like you guys


wondering if they really had to


memorize them or just copy from the others...


ON THE CLASS-OUR POV


A typical college class, all busy and TAKING NOTES, as


We SPAN slowly, WE NOTICE ANDREW again.


ON MORGAN


He continues explaining.... MORGAN(V.O.):

I realize, life is full of surprises


and also of constant learning and


perhaps a little help from above every now and then. When


I was fourteen my father got me a


tutor to study math...


BEGIN FLASHBACK:

GEORGE:

Are You serious, Morgan? MORGAN TEEN:

kids react when not in the mood to face that subject.


GEORGE:

Geez, that crazy math they teach today.


INT. MORGAN'S HOUSE-LIVING ROOM-CONTINOUS


Morgan turns on the TV, and the TOKIO Olympics are shown


ON THE KITCHEN


WALTER:

George, I feel so sorry for your son.

Morgan comes to them...


MORGAN TEEN


You mean, I can get better in Math?


WALTER:

Sure, you will if your Dad agrees on the idea

They just go their own way, not even thinking about the incident.


INT. MORGAN'S APARTMENT-NIGHT


Morgan opens his Laptop.. he puts some numbers, then


switches to some formulas and three dimensional curves


MORGAN(V.O.)


I was wondering always why I have some


problems with water, and why I'm the

will reach total happiness; seems that


even rich people don't accomplish


nothing at all either, even if they


get whatever they need.

Not my strong subject... just


memorized the main dates and a little


of cheating. Embarrassing but that's


how I made it in History class


MARY ANN:

Not surprised at all, same thing in


Math for me.


MORGAN:

You mean cheating?


MARY ANN:

Are you a psychic?


Both laugh so hard and realize that kids are looking


at them also.
