The film opens with a shot of a room with an old black and white cathode ray television in it. The room is unlit except by the television. We see a man with a moustache on television. He is talking. We can assume this is ‘Chopper’. He says: “Well…I mean…humanity doesn’t like me…that’s why I was sitting in here talking…i’m a bloody freak show” Cut to black and white professionally lit shot of the man. He moves his hand down out of shot, it gives the impression he is lowering a cigarette. The video is slowed. We notice he has a lot of tattoos.

Narrator talking:
“The film is really about narcissistic rage. Paranoia. And, I suppose, extreme psychological damage”. Silence and black screen.
