The fact that the child is wearing white and is Caucasian symbolises
his innocence, which is further emphasised between the contrast of
the bright colours and the low key lighting. The director has
positioned the character laid down with his arm across his body, this
foreshadow to the audience that the protagonist needs to protect
himself from a more dominant figure.
Here we see Goffmans narrative theory presented; the fact that the
black shoes as part of the antagonists costume cuts off the high key
artificial lighting, acts as a motif to the audience suggesting his
antagonistic role within the text.
