Shot 1: A single grey wolf steps out of the treeline at first light, breath clouding, frost still holding on the tips of its coat. The camera tracks low and level beside it as it crosses an open field of dead winter grass, wind moving in long slow waves. Shot 2: locked-off wide as the sky behind it darkens frame by frame until the field is lit only by sheet lightning. The wolf’s outline thins and scatters into the storm front, and the camera cranes up to reveal a weather system spanning the whole valley, thunder arriving a full second late.
