Title: Angled Encounters INT. LES ORTHOGONAUX'S STUDIO - DAY The studio is a chaotic mess - there are posters of psychedelic music bands, 60s and 70s memorabilia everywhere. In the middle of the room stands a stage, along with musical instruments and equipment. Reza Fazekas (27), the sarcastic and witty journalist and lead guitarist, is tuning his guitar. Marcel Messier (25), an eccentric, foppish, and hyperactive drummer, is banging on his drums. Otto Loosli (33), the calm and stoic rhythm guitarist, is off in a corner adjusting his equipment. As they wait for their new performers, Reza and Marcel chat amidst the noise. REZA (Quietly tuning his guitar) So, Marcel, how'd you find the new members? MARCEL (Banging his drums) Oh, you know, in one of those ads in the paper. Underneath a recipe for hash brownies! The door creaks open, and MIREILLE HERTIG (21), a sultry, gregarious, and stunning young woman dressed in fancy boho chic clothes, spins in with hypnotic grace. She has an Indian Sitar in hand. Following her entrance is ANNELIESE EHN (22), a wheelchair-bound, beautiful, and charming pianist with an air of mystery about her. REZA (Glancing at Mireille) Wow, you weren't kidding when you said she's a knock-out, Marcel! Anneliese, is it really you?! ANNELIESE (Flashing a heartwarming smile) Guilty as charged! I'm the pianist with the wheels! MIREILLE (Playfully) So, where do I plug in? Got to bring some eastern magic to your quaint western tunes! EXT. LES ORTHOGONAUX'S STUDIO - CONTINUOUS While the musical chaos around them continues, Marcel gives Mireille and Anneliese a quick tour of the retro-cool studio. MARCEL Over there is the kitchen slash spa -- perfect for whipping up smoothies or hot GROOVY backstage make-out sessions. Just watch the blenders. ANNELIESE (Laughing) Oh, Marcel! Always keen to find an unconventional use for a kitchen appliance! Meanwhile, Reza and Otto test out their equipment and lock their eyes on the new performers. REZA (Whispers to Otto) I think we ought to compose a song about how we met. You know, a dysfunctional but brilliant bunch of '71 freakbeat misfits. OTTO (Smiling) That actually sounds like a plan. Let's call it "Angled Encounters." All five band members gather on the stage area, picking up their respective instruments. The room buzzes with excitement and electricity. EXT. LES ORTHOGONAUX'S STUDIO - MOMENTS LATER The band starts playing one of their songs, as a sort of bonding exercise. It's groovy, edgy, and unlike anything the music scene has heard. SONG: "ANGLED ENCOUNTERS" Verse 1: (Reza) Oh, the angles from which we came From worlds apart, but here's just the same Life-worn and tattered, just like our souls But we found each other, together we're whole Chorus: (Anneliese and Mireille) We were lost, but now we're found Angled encounters, our new playground Hearts ablaze, eyes like stars In tune with each other, playing our parts Verse 2: (Mireille) Sultry sounds of the sitar collide With western beats that can't be denied A magic brew of cultures and tunes Rebelling against the world and its rules Bridge: (Marcel and Otto) When the roads we traveled seemed so long and dark The melodies we made lit the spark Chorus: (All) We were lost, but now we're found Angled encounters, our new playground Hearts ablaze, eyes like stars In tune with each other, playing our parts Outro: (All) Now we're together, we can't be pulled apart Angled encounters have made their mark The sounds we create will break through the noise As our music whispers sweetly to the wind, "We have a choice." The song ends on a climactic note, and the room erupts into applause, cheers, and whoops. Mireille, Anneliese, Reza, Otto, and Marcel take a collective bow. REZA (Laughing) Welcome to Les Orthogonaux, ladies! We have a feeling this is going to be an unforgettably wild ride. MIREILLE (Excited) Oh, just you wait! Our voices may be quiet, but our sound is going to shake thunderstorms in the sky!
