Prompt

Shot 1 – Establishing the City “Wide-angle tracking shot of a futuristic dystopian city where towering mosques dominate the skyline. Their neon-lit minarets display glowing calligraphy in an ancient language, casting reflections across the damp streets. Holographic scriptures scroll across the sky, illuminating the thick smog. Surveillance drones hover, scanning crowds below. The atmosphere is heavy with digital noise and faint echoes of prayer through the air.” 📌 Visual Style: Cyberpunk noir, deep shadows, atmospheric haze, neon contrast, cinematic 35mm texture. Shot 2 – A Symbol of Power “Low-angle shot of a grand mosque standing where a corporate headquarters once was. Its architecture is a blend of ancient tradition and futuristic materials—smooth metal domes shimmer under artificial light, while massive digital banners with moving calligraphy stretch down its facade. The entrance is guarded by autonomous drones, scanning pedestrians with glowing red laser grids. Above, a giant floating billboard displays a scripture warning against rebellion.” 📌 Visual Style: High-contrast lighting, futuristic architecture mixed with historical influences, oppressive and awe-inspiring. Shot 3 – The Streets of Transformation “Over-the-shoulder shot of a lone figure walking through the transformed city, their face obscured by the hood of a worn-out coat. The street is lined with flickering neon signs in an unfamiliar script, with remnants of the past barely visible beneath layers of graffiti. Massive LED screens broadcast speeches, their words washing over the faces of silent pedestrians. The air is dense with artificial fog, broken only by flashes of blue and red light from passing patrol drones.” 📌 Visual Style: Dreamlike depth of field, cinematic grain, atmospheric dust, cyberpunk aesthetic with a dystopian twist. Shot 4 – A Forbidden Relic “Close-up shot, slow zoom-in: The figure’s hand tightly grips an old, leather-bound book—its pages yellowed and delicate, covered in faded writing. The book stands in stark contrast to the glowing holographic scriptures that fill the air around it. The figure runs their fingers over the worn cover, a quiet act of defiance in a city that has long since erased its past.” 📌 Visual Style: Intimate framing, cyber-noir color grading, moody lighting, flickering neon reflections. Shot 5 – The Watchers in the Sky “Wide-angle shot from above: A flock of surveillance drones moves in unison over the city, their metallic bodies reflecting the neon-lit minarets below. From their perspective, the lone figure is just another silhouette in the crowd. As the drones scan the streets, their glowing red lights sweep over buildings, momentarily revealing hidden symbols etched into the crumbling walls—messages left by those who refuse to forget.” 📌 Visual Style: Overhead dystopian perspective, eerie red surveillance lights, deep cinematic shadows, slow-motion dust in the air. Shot 6 – A Moment of Resistance “Mid-range shot, slightly tilted angle: The figure stops at the base of a grand digital display, where a massive holographic scripture scrolls endlessly. Instead of moving forward, they pull the book closer to their chest, glancing up at the sky. A single torn page drifts from their hands, caught in the artificial wind, fluttering between towering minarets before disappearing into the neon haze.” 📌 Visual Style: Symbolic framing, moody lighting, slow-motion effect, high-contrast between analog and digital elements. 🎬 Final Scene – A Future Unwritten “As the lone figure walks away, the camera lingers on the book in their hands—an artifact of a forgotten past. The city looms behind them, massive and unrelenting, but for a moment, the screen glitches. A hidden message flickers in the air: ‘History is never truly erased.’ Then, as quickly as it appeared, it’s gone.” 📌 Visual Style: Cinematic final shot, glitch effect, slow zoom-out, fading neon lights, symbolic closure.

Script

where towering mosques dominate the skyline, their neon-lit minarets casting eerie glows over a city once ruled by technology and commerce. Now, the air hums with prayer calls broadcast through digital networks, and massive holographic scriptures scroll across the sky. Surveillance drones enforce the city’s strict new order, while remnants of the old world—forgotten books, decayed billboards, and abandoned skyscrapers—serve as relics of a lost era. A lone figure navigates the transformed streets, holding a fragile piece of history.
