Darkness
narrator
I don´t know if you understand. I will speak anyway.
On the
Street
FADE IN
Totale
At the Street. A blue Ballon is flying above the skyscrapers,
the Kamera zooms onto it.
NARRATOR
We are all single entities. We walk in circles. Ideas are tyranical. Free yourself. Forget.
CUT
at the office
Halbtotale
ONE
ONE is going to his workplace. He´s greeting some
buddies, they wave back. He´s pulling a cable out of his head and plugs
in into a jack in the wall.
(The Jack is labelled with "Mind", The Office-window
is labelled with "you can do it ltd.")
ONE types on the keyboard und operates with little handgears.
On the Screen, little circles are turning.

Titel
(Musical theme 1: Day 1001)
at the office
Halbnah
The camera passes the workplaces. The Buddies work on
Monitors. ONE does that, too.
CUT
Camera outside the Window, looking back into the Office. ONE
standing at the window, looking out. It starts raining. The camera is moving
slowly backwards. At the class pane one can read: "you can do it ltd."
FADE OUT
At the office
Halbnah
ONE
ONE is plugging in again. He doesn´t start working. He
is unsatisfied. He´s plugging out.
NARRATOR
We will walk forever in the same circles. The reason lies in our thinking. The reason are our symbols. We need new, different symbols. I didn´t go to work anymore.
CUT
At home
Halbnah
ONE
ONE standing in front of his mirror, painting a stroke onto
his chest.
NARRATOR
And I named myself. The others had no names. I called them
"singles". I wanted to become someone I am not. I became ONE.
In the
living room
senkrecht von oben
ONE
ONE is scribbling and thinking.
NARRATOR
To formulate new thoughts, I needed new symbols. For new symbols, I needed new thoughts. A circle. We walk in circles.
FADE OUT
in the
living room, at night
Halbnah
ONE
ONE has an inspiration, writes it on Paper and is excited: he
solved the problem.
NARRATOR
Finally I solved the problem: New symbols, new thoughts, new ways. One has to quit thinking in circles. My thoughts walked in new ways.
CUT
My thoughts
didn´t walk in circles
anymore
Subjektiver Blick
ONE looks at the town through a red sherd.
CUT
ONE paints a Fish at Home. Lots of other Fish-Paintings lean
on the wall.
NARRATOR
I developed originalities. Originalities let us differ from another. But the singles now completely vanished out of sight. I was alone.
FADE OUT
at the
office
Halbnah
ONE
ONE is alone at the office. He plugs in, he jerks, the
Monitor flickers. He quickly plugs out, holding his head.
NARRATOR
I could not plug in anymore. Headaches. I became incompatible.
With a sound like a tinnitus starts the second musical theme:
"sometimes I smile"
at the
street
Halbnah
ONE
ONE is gesturing, pointing at his chest-stroke and tries to
explain something to a Buddy. He´s brusquely blazing a trail, shaking his
head. ONE is left back, perplexed.
NARRATOR
I tried to explain the new way of thinking. One can only make it, if one quits thinking in circles and takes themselves seriously. They didn´t even try. I was alone.
FADE OUT
giving up
Halbnah
ONE
ONE in Front of his mirror at home. He´s wiping the
stroke from his chest.
NARRATOR
I abolished my new symbols. I went back in the row. I became nameless again.
CUT
ONE is going to work again. Die Buddies are waving. The
letters on the Window-pane have changed:
"Nothing matters ltd."
Sometimes
i smile
Totale - Halbnah - Nah - sehr nah
ONE

The camera moves to the ride, die Buddies are working. ONE is
stanting at the window, looking out. The camera is moving closer, to the eyes
of ONE, until closeup.
NARRATOR
We are all singles. We walk in circles. I became someone that I no longer am. I´ve learned and unlearned everything. I had a name: I was ONE! Sometimes I smile.
