LA Festival Logline: The Last Word, by Andriy Makarchenko

World globalization has come. People stopped to communicate with usual words, but they learned to communicate with smileys. I.e. nowadays they open mouths to reproduce something and multi-colored smileys fly out instead of usual words. The CRIMINAL is conveyed to the court-room. His guilt is that he is the only one who still speaks in a usual way, i.e. with words. A demonstrative open show trial is managed. It is broadcast on TV. After PROSECUTOR’S and BARRISTER’S speech the last word is given to the CRIMINAL. Judges and all who are present wait for the CRIMINAL to confess in his sins and to refuse from words. And the CRIMINAL begins in the way that he is required to do, but then he loses his temper and fucks a court-room and judges and the BARRISTER with the PROSECUTOR with the choicest swearwords in different world languages. A young family: the FATHER, the MOTHER and their little SON, watch a broadcast show trial on TV. After it is suddenly broken off, the SON asks his FATHER a killing question: “Daddy, what does it mean “whore”? By the way the last word is diligently pronounced aloud by him.
