# The Last One - Complete Shot List v02

**Genre:** post-apocalyptic absurdist comedy  
**Planned duration:** approximately 3 minutes 42 seconds  
**Numbering:** shot numbers remain continuous across the whole film.  
**Current boundary:** Shots 01-21 were produced; Shots 22-47 remain planned and unproduced.

## Locked production decisions

- The basement search was removed. The opening search now moves from ruined road to empty room, cupboard and high-ground observation.
- The first minute maintains sincere post-apocalyptic film language and does not reveal normal society early.
- Similar doorway compositions carry different story actions: approach, human contact, hope and interruption.
- Phone interfaces and other fragile readable text should be composited in post-production.
