2. Sound
At the beginning you can
be able to hear a metallic
sound of the chains.
In the middle of the scene the
teenage girl starts tapping her
fingers, which suggests that
she’s bored or waiting for
someone.
You can also hear the radio
but because they are in the
middle of nowhere, there’s
not signal in the car.
Camera
At the beginning of the film there’s an extreme
close-up of the chains.

There’s a close up of the teenage girl.
There’s an extreme close up of a trunk but there’s
