A young boy lies on a hospital bed, a cold metallic device pressed against his bare chest. It’s nighttime and the only source of light in the otherwise dim room is the fluorescent glow of the monitor displaying the boy’s vital signs. Clean, sterile whites and blues dominate the scene, highlighting the boy’s fragile state. The camera angles from above, focusing on him, portraying the depth of his solitude and vulnerability. Suddenly a single, tiny bead of sweat forms on his forehead – vasoconstriction. It trickles down the side of his face, the camera staying with it, capturing the intricate detail and movement. At that moment, a nurse enters the room, flipping the main lights on. Suddenly, the room is filled with warmth and comfort, a sharp contrast from the coldness before. She comforts the boy, her form creating a balanced shot, soothing the chilling discomfort shown earlier. Like a swift micrometeorite, an unforeseen change transforms the atmosphere.
