Scene 1 Characters: Crypto_fly, the vegan hot-dogs seller, the pigeons

Intro: where: NY city when: modern days, sunset who: a woman in her forties, long brown-grey hair held in a loosy treccia what: walking an iconic NY street, eating a vegan hot dog, thinking

There are some days, during the Golden Hour, when my city seems almost safe (CF pp a, next to an ambulante hot dog seller)

Inside high walls (very little CF, profile, street with big palaces)

so shiny and polished (from sotto, 1. hands with almost finished hot dog 2. CF face: she's eating with satisfaction, with no regard of the sauce on her chewing mouth, her glasses -fly- seem cut in halves by the same light on the skyscrapers, on one of them we can see, very faraway, a windows cleaners' platform)

a safe place for everyone to find their spot (going up with the fly we see a couple of pigeons on a slim parapetto)

to live sharing the benefits of being together (detail of pigeons cuddling)

in a fortress (NY from the sky, saw by the fly) - on the skyscraper there's the big logo and title of a bank ---- imperial global trust
