wake up

a sequence of urban scenes in black and white, beginning with a low-angle view of towering skyscrapers against a bright sky, followed by a quiet, wet alleyway. The perspective shifts to the lower bodies of people walking on a cobblestone street, then to a group of men in dark coats walking down a city street, a close-up of a person holding an umbrella, and finally a woman in a trench coat walking forward with a group of men. The setting is a dense, modern city with a somber, dramatic atmosphere.
