Sound of radio static. Cut to a brick wall.
Camera tracks right to reveal a modern urban street scene.
Shot of teenagers all in school dress in classroom all panting lightly, as if for exercise. Cut to street scene shows little boy in school uniform watching soldiers walk by. In these first seconds we have seen father, daughter, and son. They are the ones who will go into the outback early in the film. This montage continues with more cuts of father and daughter.
