1. Script for Neglected
[Piano playing throughout the scene].Starts off with view of street, ‘Victoria Avenue’. Then a
panning of street. View of phone alarm ringing on The Bible, saying ‘Happy Birthday’. We see Sonia
get up, looks in mirror while still in bed (as mirror is in front of her), puts her glasses on and gets up
to open the door.
Sonia (Curious): “Mum”
Then see her go downstairs, going into the kitchen, to stroke her cat. Then she goes into the fridge
to look for milk. She then find the milk and places it on the kitchen table to find a note from her
mum which reads “Happy Birthday, sorry I couldn’t be here. Love Mum”. Sonia looks at the note
with displease and throws it away with a sigh.
