The film starts off by telling us that it is based on true story and a non-diegetic sound track starts playing. we are then shown a boy riding a bike doing a paper round with the actors names starting to appear one by one and the shows the title of the film. Then we see a girl collecting the paper and we follow her going inside her house, when inside she puts the paper down and goes up to wake her mum. When the mum wakes up she has strange repercussions from the night before this make the viewer wonder what's going on, "is this normal? Isn't it?" As this is happening more credits show up one at a time at various point on the screen such as more actors and producers.
When the mother is down stairs the music stops and we are introduced to of her daughters and the father.
The film has no real opening titles just a display of the film's title at the beginning with the scene still going on in the back ground. This doesn't cut up the film and helps establish the "slice of life style" the film is going for.
The scene introduces the main characters which is good because the film is telling a stand alone story where your don't know any of the characters. The scene mange's to gab your attention with some mystery so you continue viewing.
