  • Shot on an iPhone 4
  • Use of tracking shot
  • The colour of the sky fades into black and white
  • The use of water as a symbol
  • The use of sound e.g. the eerie noise
  • Bells – on the fishing rod, the woman holds them (fishing rod?), and they are used later on in the short film
  • Themes of mortality, death and spirit – throughout the film especially during the end
  • By the end, the narrative enigma’s tie-up
  • The man with the hat is one of the God’s in the temple
