## Prompt

```text
Create a grainy cinematic 35mm street-photography style image inside an old European café at night, with a muted green-yellow color cast, soft window reflections, low available light, shallow depth of field, and the feeling of a candid documentary photo. The scene shows exactly two seated patrons: on the left, {left_patron}, and on the right, {right_patron}. Both faces are intentionally obscured by plain dark square blocks for anonymity. Include exactly three round marble café tables: one foreground table on the left with a white espresso cup and saucer, a small drinking glass, a black ashtray, and a cigarette pack; one middle-right table with a white espresso cup and saucer, a clear water glass, and folded newspapers; and one blurred empty foreground table at the bottom right. Include exactly three visible bentwood café chairs: one behind the middle-right table, one partially visible at bottom right, and one dark chair shape near the left patron. Add an old wall menu board in the upper left with hand-lettered text reading “PORTO ROUGE FINS C 250.” The background should contain dark wood paneling, mirrors or glass doors, a vague reflected figure, and a bright greenish doorway or window on the far right. Use {lighting_mood}, {film_stock_look}, and {aspect_ratio}. Avoid modern objects, crisp digital sharpness, clean studio lighting, or any additional people in the foreground.
