WHITE HOUSE VIDEO /
ANNA WITH MARIA /

Maria walks around the room. Like she is measuring, maybe furnishing it in her head. The camera shifts viewpoint and we see with her eyes.

A slow almost surreal version of the WHITE HOUSE. We see still images of Anna. Images that activates other parts of THE STORY.

 

WHITE HOUSE / voice-over
ANNA WITH MARIA /
Two woman with long hair sits at the white sofa. They are mother and daughter. They exchange thoughts and memories. They talk like they been away from each other for a long time. Like something dramatically has happened.

ANNA:
I feel like this is the beginning of the end ...
MARIA:
No, its the end of the beginning ... The doctor at the hospital was very positive. You have a lot of time left. A lot of life ...
ANNA:
It is his job as a doctor ... he donīt know what it is like... to live with memories that never fades away.
Everything Iīve done, everyone Iīve known ītil now still exists ... inside me ... around me ...
MARIA:
You canīt live in the past. You have a life now. You have grandmother. She needs you. Iīll be around. You canīt get rid of me.

ANNA:
I feel like Iīm in a waiting room. These rooms are just for waiting.
MARIA:
We rented it like this. You needed the privacy. The still life.
ANNA:
All these medication, these drugs...
MARIA:
I know. It is a lot to remember. You wonīt be alone. Youīll have help every day.
ANNA:
I donīt want to be anything anymore ... I just want to be ...
MARIA:
See it as a time out ... a room for waiting ...
ANNA:
A moment for myself ... a self controlled moment ...
