“Sol Prendido” for Borderland Beat

A lone female appears on film in the dead of night in a secluded area outside of town. She is sitting on the ground with her legs crossed on the rural terrain. Her hands and field of vision are covered with grey duct tape. 

The bright glare of several spot lights illuminate the desolate surroundings. An unknown male with an authoritative voice will question her before she abruptly leaves this world.
