Characters:

  • Name: Rohan
  • Appearance: 25-year-old Indian male, sharp jawline, curious dark brown eyes, messy black hair, medium athletic build, 5’10”.
  • Clothing: Modern black zip-up hoodie, dark grey cargo pants, stylish white sneakers, a black smartwatch, and a small, futuristic camera attached to a strap on his wrist.
  • Voice: Clear, youthful baritone with a modern, urban Indian accent in Hindi. Voice is typically energetic and engaging, but now filled with nervous excitement.
  • Personality: Adventurous, tech-savvy, and deeply curious. His expressions are a mix of determination and a hint of fear as he operates the unknown technology.

The scene opens in a dimly lit, modern apartment bedroom, meticulously detailed to reflect a vlogger’s life. The walls are adorned with maps and framed photos of historical landmarks. State-of-the-art vlogging equipment—microphones, ring lights, and multiple monitors—sits on a sleek desk, casting a cool, blue light across the room. Our protagonist, Rohan, a young man with an intense, focused expression, stands in the center. He holds a small, pulsating, chrome device in his palm. His fingers tremble slightly as he presses a glowing button. Instantly, the air crackles with energy. A shimmering, kaleidoscopic vortex of light erupts from the device, engulfing him. The room’s familiar objects begin to distort and stretch as if pulled into a temporal singularity. The soundscape is a chaotic mix of digital hums and ethereal whooshes, culminating in a deafening crescendo as Rohan’s form dissolves into pure light, leaving the room silent and empty, with only the faint smell of ozone lingering in the air.

Dialogues:

  • Rohan: (whispering to his camera) Yahi hai woh pal. Chalo, itihaas ko jeete hain.
  • Rohan: (breathing heavily) Wish me luck.

Tone: Suspenseful, futuristic, and awe-inspiring

Background music: A low, pulsating electronic synth builds in intensity, mixed with a high-frequency temporal hum. It abruptly cuts to silence at the end.

Camera directions: Starts with a close-up on Rohan’s determined face, then a tight shot on his hand activating the device. A rapid dolly zoom out as the vortex explodes, using a fisheye lens effect to distort the room. Lighting shifts from the cool blue of the monitors to a blinding, multi-colored strobe. Ends on a static shot of the empty room.

Actions: Rohan takes a deep, steadying breath. His thumb hovers over the device’s button before pressing it firmly. His body tenses as the vortex forms around him, his eyes wide with a mix of fear and exhilaration. He grips his camera tightly as he is dematerialized.

Sound design: Initial ambient city hum from outside the window. The sound of the device activating with a low, charging hum that escalates into a high-pitched temporal whine. Crackling electrical energy and a final, powerful ‘whoosh’ as he disappears.

🎬 Scene 2

Characters:

  • Name: Rohan
  • Appearance: 25-year-old Indian male, sharp jawline, curious dark brown eyes, messy black hair, medium athletic build, 5’10”.
  • Clothing: Modern black zip-up hoodie, dark grey cargo pants, stylish white sneakers (now caked in mud), a black smartwatch, and his futuristic camera.
  • Voice: Clear, youthful baritone with a modern, urban Indian accent in Hindi. Tone is now breathless and filled with disbelief.
  • Personality: Adventurous and tech-savvy, but now completely overwhelmed and vulnerable. His modern confidence has evaporated, replaced by pure awe and a dawning sense of his displacement.

The transition is jarring and visceral. Rohan materializes with a jolt, stumbling forward onto a muddy, uneven path. The air is thick with the smell of damp earth, woodsmoke, and a raw, untamed wilderness. He coughs, disoriented, his modern sneakers sinking into the wet ground. As his vision clears, he looks up, and his jaw drops in utter disbelief. Before him, bathed in the golden light of a late afternoon sun, stands the majestic Raigad Fort. It’s not a ruin but a living, breathing fortress, its massive stone walls and bastions rising impossibly high against a backdrop of the rugged Sahyadri mountains. Saffron flags, emblazoned with the ‘Jari-Patka’, flutter proudly from the ramparts. The scale is overwhelming, the reality far more imposing than any history book could convey. The world is saturated with natural, earthy tones—deep greens, rich browns, and the warm ochre of the laterite rock, a stark contrast to the sterile blues and greys of his time. He is an anachronism, a glitch in this ancient, epic landscape.

Dialogues:

  • Rohan: (to his camera, voice trembling) Ye… Ye sach hai. Main yahan hoon.
  • Rohan: Raigad. Asli Raigad.

Tone: Awestruck, disorienting, and majestic

Background music: The electronic score fades, replaced by a sweeping, orchestral theme featuring a prominent flute (bansuri) and sitar, evoking a sense of ancient grandeur and wonder.

Camera directions: A low-angle shot from behind Rohan as he stumbles to his feet, emphasizing his vulnerability. The camera then pans up slowly, revealing the full, breathtaking scale of Raigad Fort. A wide, epic shot with a deep focus, capturing the texture of the stone and the vastness of the mountains. The lighting is ‘golden hour,’ warm and dramatic.

Actions: Rohan stumbles, catching himself with his hands. He slowly pushes himself up, wiping mud from his clothes. He looks around wildly, his eyes finally locking onto the fort. He raises his camera instinctively, his hands shaking as he tries to film.

Sound design: The sound of his heavy breathing. Distant birdsong, the rustle of leaves in the wind, and the faint, far-off sounds of a bustling settlement. The music swells as the fort is revealed.

🎬 Scene 3

Characters:

  • Name: Rohan
  • Appearance: As before.
  • Clothing: As before.
  • Voice: His voice is now strained and high-pitched with fear.
  • Personality: His awe has turned to primal fear. He is completely out of his element, trying to process the immediate, life-threatening danger.
  • Name: Jeeva (Maratha Soldier 1)
  • Appearance: 30s, rugged face, thick mustache, stern dark eyes, muscular build, 6’0″. A scar across his left eyebrow.
  • Clothing: Saffron-colored pheta (turban), simple cotton tunic, tight-fitting trousers. Carries a spear (bhala) and a round shield (dhal). A sword (talwar) is sheathed at his waist.
  • Voice: Deep, commanding baritone. Speaks a rustic, Marathi-accented Hindi. His tone is gruff and suspicious.
  • Personality: Disciplined, loyal, and vigilant. He is instantly on guard, embodying the warrior spirit.

Rohan’s moment of awe is shattered by a sudden, gruff shout. He spins around to see two imposing Maratha soldiers emerging from the dense foliage. They are everything he imagined and more—tall, muscular, with fierce eyes and formidable mustaches. Dressed in saffron turbans and armed with gleaming spears and round shields, they move with a predator’s grace. Their leader, Jeeva, steps forward, his eyes narrowing with suspicion as he takes in Rohan’s bizarre attire—the synthetic fabric of his hoodie, the strange device on his wrist. He points his spear directly at Rohan’s chest, the sharpened tip glinting menacingly in the sunlight. The air grows thick with tension. Rohan freezes, his heart pounding in his chest. He raises his hands in a universal gesture of surrender, his camera dangling uselessly from his wrist. He tries to speak, but the words catch in his throat. The soldiers exchange a look, their expressions a mixture of confusion and hostility. They see not a traveler, but an anomaly, a potential spy from an unknown land.

Dialogues:

  • Jeeva: (shouting) Kaun hai re tu? Yahan kya kar raha hai?
  • Rohan: (stammering) Main… Main… bhatak gaya hoon.
  • Jeeva: (to his companion) Iska pehnawa toh dekho. Koi bhediya lagta hai.

Tone: Tense, suspenseful, and confrontational

Background music: The sweeping orchestra cuts to a low, ominous drumbeat (dholak), creating a tense, rhythmic heartbeat that mirrors Rohan’s fear.

Camera directions: Over-the-shoulder shot from Rohan’s perspective, showing the imposing soldiers. A quick zoom into a close-up of Jeeva’s suspicious eyes, then to the tip of the spear pointed at Rohan. A hand-held, slightly shaky camera effect to convey Rohan’s terror. Lighting becomes harsher, with sharp shadows.

Actions: Rohan spins around abruptly. The soldiers emerge from the trees, immediately taking a defensive stance. Jeeva points his spear with a swift, practiced movement. Rohan instinctively throws his hands up, dropping his camera slightly, which dangles by its strap.

Sound design: The sudden rustle of leaves as the soldiers appear. The sharp, metallic ‘shing’ of the spear being brandished. The intense, rhythmic drumming of the score. Rohan’s panicked, shallow breathing is prominent.

🎬 Scene 4

Characters:

  • Name: Rohan
  • Appearance: As before.
  • Clothing: As before. His modern attire looks even more out of place amidst the traditional villagers.
  • Voice: Silent, but his breathing and gasps convey his overwhelming awe and fear.

  • Name: Jeeva (Maratha Soldier 1)
  • Appearance: As before.
  • Clothing: As before.
  • Voice: Gruff and commanding.
  • Personality: He walks with purpose, ignoring the stares of the villagers, focused on his duty to deliver the stranger to his superior.

Prodded by Jeeva’s spear, Rohan is marched towards the base of the fort and into a bustling village. The transition from the quiet wilderness to the vibrant chaos of 17th-century life is a sensory overload. The air is filled with the sounds of merchants hawking their wares, the clang of a blacksmith’s hammer, the laughter of children playing with wooden toys, and the lowing of cattle. The village is a tapestry of life: women in colorful nine-yard sarees gracefully balance water pots on their heads, men with proud turbans lead bullock carts through the crowded, unpaved streets, and priests chant softly from a small, intricately carved temple. The houses are made of mud and thatch, simple yet sturdy. Rohan, walking between the two imposing soldiers, is a spectacle. Villagers stop and stare, their faces a mix of curiosity and suspicion at his strange clothes and terrified expression. He feels like an alien, a ghost from the future, witnessing a living, breathing diorama of the history he has only ever read about.

Dialogues:

  • Jeeva: (prodding Rohan) Chal! Chalte reh!
  • Villager 1 (Old Woman): (to another) Kahan se aaya hai yeh vichitra manushya?
  • Villager 2 (Merchant): (muttering) Koi videshi jaasoos na ho.

Tone: Vibrant, immersive, and culturally rich

Background music: The tense drumbeat softens, blending into a lively, folk-inspired melody with tabla, shehnai, and the gentle strumming of a tanpura, reflecting the village’s bustling energy.

Camera directions: A smooth tracking shot follows Rohan and the soldiers as they walk through the village. The camera is positioned at Rohan’s eye level, capturing his point-of-view of the vibrant surroundings. Quick, detailed shots of villagers’ faces, market goods, and architectural details. The color palette is warm and earthy, with vibrant splashes of color from the sarees and turbans.

Actions: Rohan is gently but firmly pushed forward by Jeeva. His head swivels from side to side, trying to take in everything at once. He makes brief eye contact with a curious child before looking away. The villagers stop their activities to stare, whispering amongst themselves.

Sound design: A rich, layered soundscape: overlapping conversations of villagers (in Marathi/Hindi), children’s laughter, the clang of a hammer on an anvil, cowbells, and the rhythmic beat of the folk music score.

🎬 Scene 5

Characters:

  • Name: Rohan
  • Appearance: As before.
  • Clothing: Now dressed in a simple 17th-century Marathi commoner’s attire: a white dhoti, a plain cream-colored Angarkha (tunic), and a simple, slightly askew pheta (turban). He looks awkward but fits in better.
  • Voice: Silent, completely awestruck.
  • Personality: He is no longer a vlogger or a time traveler; he is a subject in the presence of his king. His posture changes from scared to deeply reverent.
  • Name: Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj
  • Appearance: Mid-40s, charismatic and commanding presence. Sharp, intelligent eyes, a well-maintained beard and mustache. Lean but strong physique.
  • Clothing: A fine, deep saffron silk Angarkha, a royal pheta adorned with a modest Jiretop, and a simple shawl (shela) over his shoulders. His hand rests on the hilt of the Bhawani Talwar.
  • Voice: Resonant, calm, and authoritative tenor. Speaks pure, eloquent Hindi with a regal cadence.
  • Personality: A visionary leader exuding immense dignity and calm confidence. His gaze is piercing yet discerning, not cruel.

After being stripped of his modern gear and given simple, period-appropriate clothes, Rohan is led into the heart of Raigad Fort. He enters a large, open-air durbar hall. Sunlight streams through arched openings, illuminating dust motes dancing in the air and highlighting the simple yet elegant architecture. The hall is filled with ministers and commanders, all standing with disciplined reverence. At the far end, on a slightly raised platform, sits Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj. He is not on an opulent, jewel-encrusted throne, but a simple yet dignified wooden seat. Despite the simplicity, his presence fills the entire hall. He radiates an aura of calm authority, wisdom, and profound gravitas. His eyes, sharp and intelligent, scan the room before settling on Rohan. For a moment, the world seems to stop. Rohan, standing before the legendary king, is utterly humbled. This is not a statue or a painting; this is the man who defied empires, the architect of Swarajya. All fear is replaced by a wave of profound, overwhelming respect.

Dialogues:

  • Shivaji Maharaj: (His voice is calm but carries across the hall) Is yuvak ko hamare samaksh laane ka kya kaaran hai, Jeeva?
  • Jeeva: (Bowing deeply) Kshama Maharaj. Yeh hume kile ki seema par anjaan avastha mein mila. Iski vesh-bhusha atyant vichitra thi.

Tone: Reverent, awe-inspiring, and historic

Background music: The folk music fades into a single, sustained, low-pitched note from a cello or sarangi, creating a feeling of sacredness and anticipation. A soft, reverent male choir hums in the background.

Camera directions: A slow, majestic push-in shot from the entrance of the hall towards the throne, mirroring Rohan’s perspective. The shot is low, looking up at Shivaji Maharaj, emphasizing his authority. The lighting is ethereal, with strong beams of sunlight creating a halo effect. The colors are muted except for the deep saffron of the king’s attire.

Actions: Rohan is brought to a halt in the center of the hall. He instinctively lowers his head and joins his palms in a ‘namaste’. His eyes slowly lift to meet the king’s gaze, and his expression is one of pure, unadulterated awe. Shivaji Maharaj observes him silently, his expression unreadable but intensely focused.

Sound design: The bustling sounds of the village are replaced by the echoing silence of the grand hall. The faint sound of wind whistling through the arches. The deep, resonant voice of Shivaji Maharaj echoes slightly, adding to his commanding presence.

🎬 Scene 6

Characters:

  • Name: Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj

As Rohan stands mesmerized in the court, his mind flashes to the singular event he dreamed of witnessing. The scene instantly dissolves into a vision of Shivaji Maharaj’s coronation ceremony (‘Rajyabhishek’). The screen is flooded with grandeur and vibrant color. We are in the middle of a massive crowd at Raigad, the air electric with joyous celebration. Thousands of people cheer ecstatically as priests, draped in white and saffron, chant ancient Vedic hymns in perfect unison. The sound is a powerful, spiritual wave. Shivaji Maharaj sits on a magnificent golden throne. Sacred waters from the seven holy rivers are poured over him in an act of ritual purification. The camera focuses on the climax: the royal priest places the ornate, bejeweled crown upon his head. At that exact moment, the cannons on the fort’s bastions fire a thunderous salute, and the crowd erupts in a deafening roar of “Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Ki Jai!”. The image is a breathtaking spectacle of triumph, spirituality, and the birth of a sovereign Hindu kingdom.

  • Voice: His voice is a quiet, confident tenor, filled with strategic authority.
  • Personality: Here he is the brilliant tactician. His focus is absolute, his movements precise, and his mind clearly several steps ahead of his enemies.

The grand vision of the coronation fades, returning us to a more intimate setting. Rohan, now accepted as a harmless, albeit strange, observer, stands quietly in a corner of Shivaji Maharaj’s private strategy room. The room is spartan, functional, and lit by the flickering orange glow of oil lamps and a single large torch. A massive, hand-drawn map of the Deccan plateau is spread across a low wooden table. Shivaji Maharaj, no longer in his formal court attire but in a simple, practical tunic, leans over the map, surrounded by his trusted generals (‘Ashta Pradhan’). He is not just a king; he is a master strategist. His finger traces a route through treacherous mountain passes, his voice calm and precise as he outlines a plan for a guerrilla attack. His generals listen with rapt attention, their faces reflecting a mixture of admiration and intense focus. Rohan watches, completely captivated, witnessing the brilliant military mind that outmaneuvered the mighty Mughal and Adilshahi empires. He understands now that Swarajya was won not just with swords, but with intellect, foresight, and unparalleled strategy.

Dialogues:

  • Shivaji Maharaj: (pointing at the map) Hum is ghaati se prahar karenge. Unhe iski apeksha bilkul nahi hogi.
  • General (Tanaji Malusare type): Parantu Maharaj, woh marg atyant kathin hai.
  • Shivaji Maharaj: Kathin hai, asambhav nahi. Sahas aur buddhi se har marg saral ho jaata hai.

Tone: Intense, strategic, and intellectually stimulating

Background music: The epic score is replaced by a tense, subtle underscore. A deep, rhythmic beat from a single tabla, combined with the low drone of a tanpura, creates an atmosphere of focused contemplation and imminent action.

Camera directions: The scene is lit with chiaroscuro lighting, with deep shadows and warm, flickering lamplight creating a dramatic, intimate atmosphere. A top-down shot of the map, showing the king’s finger moving across it. Close-ups on the focused faces of Shivaji Maharaj and his generals. A slow, subtle dolly shot that circles the table, making the viewer feel like a part of the secret council.

Actions: Shivaji Maharaj uses a small wooden piece to mark a location on the map. He gestures decisively to explain his strategy. The generals nod in understanding, their expressions serious. Rohan leans forward slightly, trying to absorb every word and gesture.

Sound design: The crackling of the torch and oil lamps. The soft rustle of the map paper. The low, serious murmur of voices. The subtle, tense background score enhances the feeling of a high-stakes planning session.

🎬 Scene 8

Characters:

  • Name: Rohan

  • Clothing: In his 17th-century commoner’s attire.
  • Voice: Silent, but his sharp intake of breath is audible. He might whisper the war cry himself.
  • Personality: He is no longer just an observer. He feels a deep, visceral connection to the warriors below. His face is filled with patriotic fervor and awe at their bravery.

The scene shifts to the high ramparts of a fort, possibly Pratapgad, overlooking a misty valley at dawn. The air is cool and charged with anticipation. Rohan stands near a battlement, his borrowed turban protecting him from the morning chill. Below him, in the fort’s courtyard, a formidable contingent of the Maratha army is assembled. Hundreds of ‘Mavale’ soldiers, their faces etched with fierce determination, stand in disciplined ranks. The rising sun glints off the sharp edges of their swords and spearheads. A commander on horseback raises his sword high, and in response, the entire army lets out a single, earth-shattering war cry that echoes through the mountains: “HAR HAR MAHADEV!”. The raw power of their unified voice sends a shiver down Rohan’s spine. Saffron flags are raised high, catching the wind and creating a vibrant wave of color against the grey stone of the fort. This is the sound of courage, of faith, of a people fighting for their freedom. Rohan, gripping the cold stone of the rampart, feels an overwhelming surge of pride and patriotism course through his veins.

Dialogues:

  • Maratha Commander: (Voice booming with power) JAI BHAVANI!
  • Maratha Army: (A deafening, unified roar) JAI SHIVAJI!
  • Maratha Commander: (Sword raised high) HAR HAR MAHADEV!
  • Maratha Army: (An even more powerful echo) HAR HAR MAHADEV!

Tone: Epic, powerful, and patriotic

Background music: The tense underscore explodes into a powerful, percussive war theme. The beat is driven by a battery of dhols and nagadas, with a powerful male choir chanting rhythmically. The music is visceral and designed to stir the soul.

A slow-motion shot of the flags being raised against the rising sun. An extreme close-up on Rohan’s face, capturing the raw emotion and the reflection of the saffron flags in his eyes as he hears the war cry. Lens flares from the rising sun add to the epic feel.

Sound design: The primary sound is the powerful, reverberating war cry of hundreds of men. The clanking of armor and weapons. The flapping of flags in the wind. The pounding, rhythmic war music that builds to a massive crescendo.

🎬 Scene 9

Characters:

  • Appearance: As before.
  • Clothing: In his 17th-century commoner’s attire.
  • Voice: Silent. His thoughts are conveyed through his expression.
  • Personality: Reflective, introspective, and profoundly changed. The brash vlogger is gone, replaced by a young man who has connected with his heritage on a spiritual level.

The echoes of the war cry fade, replaced by a profound, contemplative silence. The scene is now set at sunset, atop the highest point of Raigad Fort, the ‘Takmak Tok’. The sky is painted in breathtaking hues of orange, purple, and gold. Rohan stands alone, looking out at the panoramic vista of the Sahyadri mountain range stretching to the horizon. The world below is cloaked in a gentle mist. He holds his futuristic camera, but he isn’t filming. Instead, he cradles it as a symbol of his own time, a stark contrast to the ancient, timeless landscape before him. A gentle breeze rustles his simple clothes. His face is calm, his eyes filled with a deep understanding and a newfound sense of peace. He has witnessed the strategy, the grandeur, and the raw courage of this era. He understands that Swarajya was more than a kingdom; it was an ideal, a dream of self-rule, dignity, and justice. In this quiet moment of reflection, the 400-year gap between his world and this one seems to vanish, and he feels an unbreakable bond with his ancestors.

Dialogues:

  • Rohan: (voiceover, soft and emotional) Yahan aakar samjha… Swarajya sirf ek rajya nahi, ek vichaar hai.
  • Rohan: (voiceover) Ek ehsaas hai… azaadi ka, swabhiman ka.

Camera directions: A wide, majestic, static shot of Rohan standing silhouetted against the magnificent sunset. A slow, 360-degree orbital shot around him, capturing the breathtaking landscape from all angles. A close-up on his face, showing the serene and thoughtful expression in his eyes. The lighting is soft, warm, and golden, creating a beautiful, painterly effect.

Actions: Rohan stands still, breathing in the mountain air. He lowers his camera and simply observes the view, a small, content smile on his lips. He closes his eyes for a moment, absorbing the feeling of the place and the moment.

Sound design: The gentle sound of the wind whistling over the cliffs. The distant, faint call of a bird. The soft, emotional score is the most prominent element, guiding the reflective mood of the scene.

🎬 Scene 10

Characters:

  • Name: Rohan
  • Appearance: As before, but now he is back in his modern clothes. His hair is slightly disheveled, and there’s a smudge of dirt on his cheek, the only physical remnant of his journey.
  • Clothing: Modern black zip-up hoodie, dark grey cargo pants, sneakers.
  • Voice: A confident, mature baritone. His voiceover has a new depth and sense of purpose.
  • Personality: He is transformed. He is calmer, more focused, and carries himself with a new sense of maturity and purpose. He is no longer just a vlogger; he is a storyteller with a vital message.

Rohan stands against the sunset, lost in thought, when the time-travel device on his wrist, hidden beneath his sleeve, begins to emit a soft, pulsating blue light. The familiar temporal hum returns, gently at first, then growing stronger. He looks down at his wrist, a sad but accepting smile on his face. The beautiful 17th-century landscape begins to flicker and distort around him, just as his apartment did. The image of the saffron flag on Raigad is the last thing to fade. With a final, silent whoosh, he is pulled back through time. He lands back in the exact spot he left, in his modern, dimly lit apartment. The transition is smooth this time, not jarring. He stands there for a moment, catching his breath. The modern world feels alien. He looks at his hands, then at his vlogging camera. His eyes are no longer just curious; they hold the weight and wisdom of his experience. He has a new story to tell, not just of a king, but of courage, leadership, and the enduring spirit of Swarajya. He has found his purpose.

Dialogues:

  • Rohan: (voiceover, as he returns) Main ek kahani ki talaash mein gaya tha…
  • Rohan: (looking at his camera with a determined smile) …aur apne desh ki aatma se mil aaya.

Tone: Hopeful, inspiring, and conclusive

Background music: The gentle flute melody seamlessly transitions into a modern, inspirational orchestral theme. It combines traditional Indian instruments (sitar, tabla) with a contemporary cinematic score, symbolizing the fusion of past and present. The music swells to an uplifting climax.

Camera directions: A close-up on the glowing device on his wrist. A disorienting ‘vortex’ effect as he travels back, but this time it’s less chaotic and more beautiful. The camera does a quick pull-back as he materializes in his room. The final shot is a powerful, heroic close-up on Rohan’s face as he looks directly into his camera lens (and at the audience), a determined and inspired look in his eyes.

Actions: Rohan looks at the glowing device, nods to himself, and accepts his return. He lands solidly on his feet. He takes a moment to reorient, then picks up his camera, his grip firm and purposeful. He switches it on, his expression resolute.

Sound design: The return of the temporal whoosh and electronic hum, but it’s smoother. The sound cross-fades from the mountain wind to the ambient hum of his apartment’s electronics. The final, swelling, inspirational score dominates the end of the scene.
