               FADE IN:



               EXT. THE SCOTTISH COUNTRYSIDE - DAY



Epic beauty: cobalt mountains beneath a glowering purple sky

fringed with pink, as if the clouds were a lid too small for

the earth; a cascading landscape of boulders shrouded in

deep green grass; and the blue lochs, reflecting the sky. We

hear a voice, husky, Scottish...


                                     VOICE OVER

                         I will tell you of William Wallace.


               EXT. MACANDREWS FARM - DAY



A farmhouse and a large barn lie nestled in a Scottish valley.

Riding down the roads that lead in from opposite sides are

Scottish noblemen in full regalia: eye-popping tartans,

sparkling chestplates. Even the horses are draped in scarlet.

Behind each nobleman rides a single page boy.
