This is a short excerpt that evokes a sense of dread and futility. Imagine the strumming of the harp to an image of a pensive princess, with the powerful brass complementing the camera’s slow panning out of the window and into vision of the derelict and perilous castle in which she is trapped. Or perhaps for a more realistic scenario, imagine the existential crisis of a father ruminating upon the decision to engage in criminal acts in order to fund his daughter’s critical surgery.
