Close your eyes.
LISA
MONA So you and I are the only ones left in this city.
Mona turns her head towards Lisa.
Close your eyes.
LISA
LISA Like the city, abandon your thoughts. Stop thinking.
Mona looks at Lisa for a long moment then decides to listen. She closes her eyes and faces the sea. Lisa moves in circles around Mona.
Mona opens her eyes.
LISA Just close your eyes and imagine the city. Imagine. Imagine the city like you want it to be.
The video of the city starts to change. The city slowly starts transforms from grave to colorful. The mountains of trash slowly fade down. The city sounds fade in from afar. Beirut now is a city hustling and bustling. Windows open. Curtains fly out of windows. The city is alive.
LISA
( with her robotic voice and over the city sounds) Imagine the city. Imagine it like you want it to be. Imagine.
The video progresses while the sounds of the city and the voice of Lisa repeating the same line merge in harmony.
LISA Imagine the city. Imagine it like you want it to be. Imagine.
An unfamiliar sound is heard from afar. Mona suddenly opens her eyes.
