FADE IN: 

Extreme close-up shot of hands holding a map. Bright Red circle is drawn on a map. There is a doodle of a goblet next to the circle. Dissolve in to the establishing shot of the mountain.

 

EXT. The entrance of the temple. Day 

The door looks too heavy to open. However, when Jack puts his hands on the door, it is automatically opened. Jack walks into the temple with suspicion. As soon as his feet entirely come in, the door slams. Jack tries to open it but it is impossible. He takes the radio and compass out of his bag but both already lost signals. 

 

INT. Temple. Night 

The camera captures his face. His eyes are bloodshot. He stops tearing his hair out, and starts to think about the survival. He takes everything he has on the table, tries to fix the radio. It does not work well; he throws the tool away and goes to hammock that he brought. The camera set focus on a table that is messed up with his stuffs. 

 

INT. Temple. Morning 

Jack wakes up because his eyes are dazzled by the strong sunlight. He sits on a broken column and opens one of the soup can he has brought. He blinks his eyes a few times. His eyes still look sleepy. After eating the breakfast, he looks around the hammock and he finds a fountain made of marble. It is filled with clean water. Water drops into the fountain from the ceiling. Jack looks above, finds the windows are broken. However, it seems impossible to escape to the ceiling because there is no ladder or stairs to reach it. He clicks his tongue once and lowers his head to drink water. When he folds his waist to reach to the water, he finds a old goblet under the fountain. It is really dirty, but he uses it as a cup.

He sits on the table, finds a piece of paper and pen. He thinks that he would be able to get out of here if he finds the golden goblet.

​

INT. Temple. Night

He wandered the entire temple for a whole day. He recorded every path he has passed on the paper. However, he could not find any piece of goblet. He sprawls out on a pile of gold coin. He has seen countless golds and jewels that day, so that he is sick of seeing them. He sees a night sky and twinkling stars through the ceiling. He throws a gold coin to the star, as if he tries to hit the star  with it. He falls asleep.

​

INT. Temple. Morning/Night(for 8 weeks)

He wakes up and feels pain in his waist because he slept on the pile of coin. He twists his waist several times and start to explore the temple. While he looks around different parts of the temple, he gradually forget what his target is(=goblet) and concentrates on the exploration. One day, he made a castle with gold coins. One day, he finally fixes the radio and the compass. He stares at the radio screen, which is working properly, and he puts it in the deep corner of the bag. The other day, he carefully observed the temple. He spent a few weeks in the temple. The paper is more developed. He recorded how to go somewhere and what he found there on the map. At night, he sleeps on a pile of gold coin because that is the best place to observe stars, and he liked the feeling of being buried in coins.

​

INT. Temple. Morning 

He eats breakfast as usual. He writes plans for exploring the other area for the day on the paper. His beard and hair are long and messy, but his eyes are full of joy and excitement. He accidentally drops the cup that he has found in his first day in the temple. Then, thick debris of dirt is detached from the cup. He sees extremely bright gold concealed under the layers. He notices that it is the goblet that he was looking for. He looks at the entrance that has been closed since the first day. It is widely open. Strong wind blows into the temple and messes up the entrance.  

Jack sees a new home that he has made. He sees the map that he wrote and revised for the last few weeks. He finally sees the temple, with eyes of sadness. Jack makes the decision and pushes the front door. It is closed even though it is extremely huge and heavy.  

 

INT. Temple. Morning

He wakes up and the film ends with his hands grabbing the map.
