INT.BAR CHERRY - NIGHT This first scene is entire in black and white. A CLOSE UP shows the face of DORETH SILVYA; a twenty five years old woman, with a chanel style haircut and eyes filled with makeup. We cant see what shes wearing. DORETH drinks something in a little decorated glass cup, and she smokes a cigar. After a few seconds, we can hear footsteps of some people, and shadows darken DORETH face. MYSTERIOUS MAN (O.S) Excuse me, lady. By the way, you would be Doreth Sylvia? DORETH (in simpatic voice) Yes, Im. What you want? MYSTERIOUS MAN (O.S) Its about a theft of ten thousand dollars and a slaughter of forty eight man in the last year, in El Paso. DORETH smokes deeper. DORETH I think theres a mistake here, sirs. I never traveled to El Paso. But if you guys really wants to talk about it, we can do this drinking a beer. MYSTERIOUS MAN (O.S) Of course we can, lady. But not here. I know a place that have splendid drinks, good barmans, and it still opened twenty four hours in a day. DORETH Really? Where? MYSTERIOUS MAN (O.S) In hell, lady. Three guns aim at DORETH head. The screen darken, and we hear guns firing.
