Holeo walks through a long, gloomy corridor. He reaches the the end and he takes a torch on the wall; whispering quietly.
HOLEO
Father Olius!
Father Olius stands and walks closer to the light.
Father Olius
Yes, who are you?
HOLEO
It's me, Holeo!
FATHER OLIUS
What are you doing here, son?
HOLEO

Holeo opens the cell's door; Father Olius walks out.
HOLEO (CONT'D)

A rooster crows from the back barn.
Solonius washes his face from a small wooden-made washbasin. He raises his head up to the sky, his eyes closed, as water drips from his face to his neck.
He walks along a narrow corridor and enters the kitchen.
He smiles to his wife UPHILIA, 30, slim; beautiful young woman with long frizzy black hair, while she looks busy preparing breakfast.
His son, ULIUS, 6, skinny, with long curly brownish hair, plays with a wooden sword in the kitchen.
Hard, continuous knocking from the front door of the house breaks their affable mood. Uphilia looks terrified and she holds her son.

SOLONIUS
