Convert A Short Story Into A Screenplay Treatment

You have a short story that people liked and a nagging feeling it might be a film. This does the unglamorous translation work: turning interior reflection into visible action, cutting what only works on the page, and producing a proper treatment. For writers testing a story's second life before committing to a full script.

You have a completed short story: {SHORT_STORY}. You want to see whether it works as a film, starting with a treatment rather than a full script.

<task>
**Translate prose narrative into a screenplay treatment:**
1. Identify which internal moments need to become visible action or dialogue
2. Cut or combine any scenes that only work as prose (pure reflection, extended narration)
3. Write a treatment of 400 to 600 words in present tense, scene by scene
4. Flag any part of the story that resists translation to screen and why
