Provide the full film script in English.

The strength of the script lies in the fact it’s written in 3 parts. It was important to show the anxiety, then the distress, then the relief. This is why we chose to begin the story in the station, then to be thrown on the desert island in order to better come back into this station, and finally realize, like the actor, how helpless we can feel without our mobile The choice of the scenes on the desert island is also a strong point of the script. We needed the find the right dosage between the “cliché” scenes (help written on the sand / raft scenes) and the other scenes, less expected, that are bringing all the comic dimension to the film (banana / dehydration / spider scenes).

Write a short summary of what happens in the film

The sole character in the commercial comes down with a particularly nasty case of separation anxiety when he can’t find his phone. In short order, he’s transported to a deserted island where he is cut off from humanity. He attempts to make fire, catch fish, harvest bananas and create shelter, with limited success. His crude distress signal, H-E-L-P written on the beach, washes away with the tide, and he falls into a pile of former castaways (or, rather, just their bones). The raft he built breaks apart and pitches him into the ocean, and even though he doesn’t drown, he’s later attacked by giant, hairy spiders. But it was all a waking nightmare, as it turns out. He finds his phone and catapults his consciousness away from not-paradise and back to that train station. Heavy exhale!

Cultural/Context information for the jury

Nomophobia is real. Sure, it’s not an officially recognized mental disorder—yet. But just ask anyone who’s misplaced his smartphone. First comes the rummaging and searching through pockets, cars, desks and backpacks. Blood pressure spikes, heart rate races. Next there’s panic, often accompanied by flop sweat, hysterical tears and rage spirals. Some people liken it to the five stages of grief.
