INT. WITHIN THE GREENHOUSE – NIGHT
Akiva strips off his military uniform and all his clothes and shoes. Naked in his underwear, he begins to climb the steps of the hill and reaches its truncated summit from which the green fire bursts towards the greenhouse ceiling.
He stands by the fire. His hand reaches out and enters the fire. The fire is not hot and does not burn him. His hand turns a glowing yellow and Akiva clings to the fire with his body, the half of his body bathed in the green fire also turns a glowing yellow. After a few minutes he turns around and lets the other half of himself rest in the green flames. After a few long minutes he descends the hill with light steps and goes to put on his hazard suit, mask, and boots again.
INT. OUTSIDE THE GREENHOUSE – NIGHT
Akiva walks slowly and carefully leaves the greenhouse, making sure to close the greenhouse door behind him.
