A Warm Trigger
There’s risk to everything. All the risk is here. They count it, quantify it. Assess it. A warm trigger. It covers everything, it swallows you. Risk as a person, it swallows you. An apocalyptic nightmare.

And the shadow of the nightmare that lives in its outskirts. A polished version, a fabrication, with certain time to begin and to end. Time elevated, foggy, with vivid colors;
And as a general feeling; with no character.
Pure and misty mise-en-scène.
Maybe the word metropolis doesn’t check. It looks like an apocalyptic social experiment. The leftovers of many centuries, they gathered it and positioned it on one corner of the planet. It’s risky to record it; not because it’s not allowed but because people steal your camera. They broke the car window and took my phone from my hand.
