A woman wanders in the desert after her car breaks down. Within her thoughts and observations are the two elements that make up a movie title.

The signs of life are few
As I leave my belongings behind
Searching for shelter from the storm
Seeing an explosion of multicolored light
Before me, beckoning me to imaginary treasure

On my way to salvation
I saw a figure that sought to tempt me
Running away, out of breath
On my way to civilization
Will I reach it?
I have to
I must
Or I will die
