A shot from a fantasy film begins with a low-angle view of an old tree on a hilltop, its elongated branches supporting the rusted metal remains of what used to be a mechanical creature. The soft, warm hues of sunset backlight the figure, turning it into an intricate silhouette that stirs the curiosity. The camera then cranes up to the creature, an ariel view revealing an intricate maze of wires and gears, overgrown with moss and ivy, left behind by ancient, technologically advanced beings. The roots and the branches are mixed up, creating an illusion of a tree-machine symbiosis. This wide frame slowly pulls out to a medium closeup of a young child, crouching by the base, sketching the view, trying his hand at pictorialist photography, capturing the mystery in his notebook. His presence contrasts with the grandeur of the mechanical entity, offering a balanced perspective between nature, forgotten technology, and human curiosity. In the background, an abandoned, derelict cityscape serves as a reminder of a once thriving civilization, bridging the past and the present.
