Sturm dahinter, Wasser darunter

Stage 1: An unbranded electric SUV in matte slate climbing a flooded single-track mountain road at dusk, water running across the surface a hand's depth deep. A black storm front is already over the pass behind it, lightning inside the cloud, the last clear light ahead. No badge, no logo, no readable text on the vehicle. Ends with the SUV entering the deepest section and the front wheels pushing a bow wave. Stage 2: The road steepens and the water gets deeper. Each wheel finds a different level, the body stays level, and the suspension works visibly at all four corners. Water sheets off the front tires and up the flanks. The storm front closes and the light drops. Ends with the SUV at the deepest point, water at hub height, still moving. Stage 3: It comes out onto the crest into clear air with the storm now behind and below it. Water pours off the underbody onto dry rock. It stops. The camera keeps going and leaves it small in a huge frame. Ends wide with the SUV on the crest, the storm filling everything behind, and dry road ahead. Camera: a low tracking arm level with the water for stage one, a rising crane through stage two, and one continuous pull back to an extreme wide for stage three. Never cuts. Look: anamorphic, cold storm blue against one warm shaft of remaining sun, no lens flares, no gloss, real weight in the water. Audio: water displacing around a moving body, tires on submerged gravel, a restrained electric whine, thunder that arrives late, then wind on the crest and water draining off metal. One low sustained cue that enters on the crest.
