FROM THE PARAMOUNT LOGO

MATCH DISSOLVE TO:

A mound of sand which resembles the Paramount Logo's mountain
peak.  On the mound's summit, a CHILD'S BRONZE-SKINNED HAND sets
down a crudely fashioned toy ship. 

WIDE - A DESERT WASTELAND CAMP

3 BEDOUIN TEENAGERS are performing before a small audience made up
of BEDOUIN YOUNGSTERS: the first teenager, a boy, is imitating an
elephant; the second teenager, a girl, is pretending she is a
lion; and the third teenager, a boy again, is acting like a
donkey.  There is CLAPPING and LAUGHTER as the teens parade around
the waist high sand pile making SOUNDS akin to their particular
animal.  MAIN TITLES BEGIN.

EXT. NORTHWESTERN SHORE OF THE DEAD SEA - WIDE PANORAMA - DAY

Heat-rippled air is distorting far off figures: BEDOUIN SHEPHERDS
who steer their herd of rams leisurely along the rocky shore.

                                             DISSOLVE TO:

EXT. ROCKY SHORE - DAY

Set against the Judaean rust colored hills, THE SHEPHERDS, 3, keep
the herd moving steadily along.  The train of rams is kicking up a
veil of dust as their hooves CLACK intermittently on the loose
rocks and stones.
