In the Shop
Evening. Alex in a fitted cream-white t-shirt and high-waisted teal jeans steps through the sliding glass doors of a small grocery store, wide establishing shot of the lit aisles behind her, cold fluorescent light, wet asphalt and dark street visible through the glass behind.
Full shot from the end of an aisle: Alex walks between tall grocery shelves with a red plastic basket in one hand, half-lidded bored gaze, shelves of packaged goods on both sides, shallow depth of field.
Reaction shot: Alex stops mid-aisle and turns her head sharply over her shoulder toward the camera, long ginger hair swinging, surprise breaking through her composure for one instant, basket still in hand, grocery shelves blurred behind.
Insert: a man's hand closing around a bottle inside the lit fridge, her basket blurred at the frame edge. The recognition happens without a face — the pipeline cannot render a second identity.
Reverse two-shot: Danylo's dark back and shoulder anchor the right foreground, faceless; Alex holds the centre with her basket, answering him at a polite distance. Neither steps closer.
Tight close-up on Alex's face, cold fridge light from the side, light blue eyes going flat and still, the small smile gone, a single strand of ginger hair across her cheek, out-of-focus fridge glass behind her.
Wide shot from outside through the store's glass front: Alex framed in the doorway leaving into the blue evening street, plastic bag in hand; deep in the background, small and out of focus between the shelves, Danylo still stands watching her go. Reflections on the glass, cold interior light against the dark street.
