a bit more: joyce's ulysses could be used as a source of contrast. maybe
some samples could be made from the text, or the actor(s) could mix it with
thw greek original and the "oudeis" version.
>I mean how would dialogs look like?
another idea: non-linear, maybe starting in the missle, then going back to
the begining, then jumping, etc. also think about randomness: why should
the stiry have a fixed stucture or plot, why not leave it to the coins (yes
i do like cage's work :) ).
