Although the reassembled scenes are derived from the original footage and locations, they resemble fragmented memories, much like a dream. These scenes appear exaggerated and repetitive, often lacking logical coherence while still feeling authentic. The technique mirrors the approach used in Asian scrolls, which eschew a central perspective in favor of an omnipresent view. The viewpoint fabricates a contemplative atmosphere through a never-ending steady camera movement.
