EXT. SUBURB IN AMERICA – DAY

A man works on his Ford Mustang in his driveway. “America the Beautiful,” plays on the radio. Children are laughing and playing in their front lawns. The wind blows heavily through wind chimes. A four year old girl, EMILY, excitedly propels herself down the street on a bright, red tricycle toward her mother, BONNIE. EMILY reaches her mother. BONNIE screams in delight.

An eight-year-old boy, AAMIR, with bleeding feet, runs exhaustedly with the group toward his mother, NADIMAH. Aamir is almost to his mother when a gunshot pierces through the chaotic scene. Aamir, shot in the head, falls limply at Nadimah’s feet. Nadimah screams and sobs in dismay.

In liberating strife…
