THE JACKET
Written byMassy Tadjedin
Based on a screenplay byMarc Rocco

A pure white screen. Idyllic stillness. All of it looking and
feeling like the heavens are supposed to.
After some seconds of calm, water seems to mist the screen
and the slight shifts to the left and then the right suggest
this is a man's P.O.V. Then, suddenly, the white screen is
tugged and we see it was a sheet covering a presumably dead
man.
