Narrative• A scruffy looking man, wearing a blood-stained top is

washing the blood off his hands. He then washes his face with water and looks up to the mirror where he sees his reflection and just stares for a while.

• We then see him in the bedroom, where lying on the bed is a clean black suit.

• There is a montage of images to show him getting dressed into the suit, focussing on buttoning up his shirt, putting his tie on, putting his jacket on and tying up his shoe laces.

• As he is tying up his shoe laces, we see a trail of blood on the floor.

• The man will then place a black briefcase on the desk, which he opens by turning the dials on the combination lock.

• He opens the briefcase to reveal a selection of passports and drivers licenses which all have his face on, but with different names.
