Trash Graveyard Scene
Storyboard Text
- We'd been looking in the wrong place. The cemetery, you see, is divided by a wall. The wall divides the rich quarter, where the dead get buried in earth, from the poor quarter, where the dead get stacked up in boxes. We'd wasted the day walking among the rich when we should have been on the other side of the wall.
- We passed so many graves. Saddest were the open ones - the ones that were broken open - and everyone knows that story. Each little concrete hole costs the family 2,500 for five years. After five years you pay again, or the box is taken back. Sometimes the payment just doesn't get made - so what happens? The sledgehammer is what happens. They break open the seal and out comes the body.
- She was sitting up on the graves higher than us, so she was looking down. She was hard to see, because like I said she was so small, and there weren't so many candles there. She had long black hair, and was sitting patiently, her hands in her lap. She was wearing a school dress.
- My name is Pia Dante Angelico and I'm waiting for my father, Jose Angelico.
