The old man takes the bundle back and slowly unties the rope

The old man takes the bundle back and slowly unties the rope, separating the sticks. He hands one stick to each son. The camera focuses on the hands of the sons as they each hold a single stick. The sons look at the sticks, then at their father, who nods for them to proceed. They easily snap the sticks in half, their faces showing a mix of surprise and realization. The old man, with grey hair, a white beard, and deep wrinkles showing his age. He wears simple brown clothes with a traditional shawl draped over his shoulders. His three sons, in their early twenties, stand before him, dressed in simple tunics—one red, one blue, and one green. Show as cartoons
