I have now organized the story up to scene 13, but I need help to get even further

Specifically, the help I need is to put the notes in the documents in an order that makes the story coherent in a way that works with the film medium I have chosen and then flesh it all out. I basically need help with organizing the notes into a textual storyboard.

Structure and complexity:
Much of my inspiration has come from written Space Opera by authors like Alastair Reynolds and Charles Stross and the anthology The new space opera. While I don't dare say that I want it to be as good as those I want to get as close as I can. To the point, don't expect this to be structured like Star wars.

If you try to write scenes for this movie please do it bearing in mind the medium and it's strengths and limitations. As this task description is getting way too long, read more about this here: http://www.wreckamovie.com/shots/show/4330

The story concept
An alien arrives after FTL communication has been discovered, Earth send out two people to explore the Open galactic net. Two humans with different backgrounds living in a market economy capitalist Earth society meets a fully functioning Open Source/creative commons society.

This story is supposed to be an entry into the debate between creative commons interests and capitalistic interests that goes on today. (See http://www.iptegrity.com/ for example.)

Story setting
The strongest culture of the galaxy is a near anarchic system of share alike culture and traditions of creative commons technology. The representative sent is a member of the collector tribe. Individuals and beings who travel the galaxy, driven by curiosity to learn all they can and collect new technology which they then share at big reunions, where memories as well as technology are shared with each other. They often take these missions as their curious nature compels them to do so.

The galactic society detailed
Based on an Open Source model reminiscent of the Internet. It has a democratically elected "ruling body". The elected are not considered a ruling body however, they are more regarded as coordinators, employed to safeguard society. Their main task is to choose and coordinate arbiters. Arbiters are chosen based on their experience of multiple cultures and need to be itinerant in nature. An arbiter can only act as an arbiter in a specific area once and not in a place that the arbiter has visited before.

Please give me your ideas of how to explore this society in the flow of the movie.

For more information, see the documents attached to this task.

Cast of characters:

Main charachters

The Alien:
Explorer, collector, curious. Comes to earth on its own behalf, but helps introduce the galactic society as is the custom of galactic society to let any individual take such an initiative. Androgynous. The creature will be human in the sense that it is driven by the same things. In this movie curiousity and love is treated as universal concepts. The Alien has humour as seen in one scene where the human man asks the alien "What gender are you?" and The Alien rogueishly answers "Does it matter?" The Aliens role in the story can be described as a guide and protector with consoling emapathy. When Earth turn to full dictatorship in the absence of our protoganists The Alien has no qualms about helping our two humans try to save humanity from upsetting the wrong powerfull alien.

The chosen to join the Alien to learn about the galaxy:

The man:
Chosen by the government. When the alien picks the woman not from the Reality show contestants but from the street he is chosen mainly for his skills in manipulation and seduction rather than Xenopology, which would otherwise be the logical choice. He is hollywood handsome and charismatic. His attempts to seduce the woman gradually turns into a desperate seeking for attention and comfort as he is struck by culture shock from the realisation of how the Open Galactic Net works. A form of society he has been told would inevtably collapse in on itself. Compassion is an important part of why the open galactic net works, something most of humanity long since lost their faith in. He is, like most men, a cynic, and as a cynic has problems dealing with the fact of the pointlessness of a cynical view of life. To take the edge off the alien gives him access to the Earth history that the ship recorded on its approach. But learning about how Earth once had a democratic movement and an open international net that was a lot closer to real democracy than the theater of his contemporary Earth doesn't make him less confused.

The woman:
Chosen by the alien, who realizes that the representative of the government is unlikely to understand or handle the shape of intergalactic culture in the open galactic net. She i considered to be a deviant by her peers, chosing not to see the beauty surgeon despite being slightly overweight and thus standing out from the epitome of beauty as defined by the entertainment industry. Her grandfather was part of the Open source "movement". She is intelligent and strong willed, and as all intelligent and strong willed individuals in a rigid society she has this nagging feeling that there must be more to existence than everyday life of Earth society. She has few friends and works as a billboard designer. As would be expected she is doubtfull about embarking on a journey that although only a short time will pass for her near the speed of light will mean that a hundred years have passed when she returns. Goaded by her grandfather to seize the moment she eventually accepts.

Other important characters

Earthgov: (In the process to be refined, see http://www.wreckamovie.com/tasks/show/854 )
Conservative, firm believers in the concept of market economy and that they know what is best for all. The most influential, although unofficial, member is the minister of entertainment. His job is to make sure that society accepts what Earthgov deems to be best for them, though Earthgov doesn't really understand that he does it through subterfuge, lies or manipulation. When reports of the Open galactic net starts to trickle in it is the minister of entertainment that compels Earthgov to believe that the Open galactic is something to fear and that there is a need to organize against it.
And somewhere in the subtext you begin to wonder what really scares them, if it is a society where everyone is free to take any information they please, or if it is a society where anyone willingly gives and shares, making any rigid power structure obsolete.

The wrong Alien to upset:
For this/these creatures humanity is a gnat, although a gnat with potential to grow. When Earthgov sends a fleet for the closest stargates to either contact an empire outside the galactic net for allies or if this fails close access from the open Galactic net automated exterminators will meet them. They are of the fire and forget variety, and extermination will be total, unless our protoganists can pursuade them that they will deal with the problem in a less, distanced, manner.
