In a vibrant African savanna, a herd of bontboks grazes peacefully under a golden afternoon sun. The camera angle is a low, wide-angle shot, introducing the vast expanse of the landscape with the herd in the foreground. A young woman appears, wearing a Victorian-era dress with a wide hoopskirt, an anomaly against the backdrop of the wild. The depth of field is such that the woman is in sharp focus, while the bontboks and the savanna gradually blur into the background. The film’s color palette is warm with earthy hues, highlighting the contrast between the woman’s bright dress and the natural surroundings. There’s a sense of balance in the composition with the woman and the herd on opposing thirds of the frame. As she starts to move slowly towards the bontboks, the camera pans with her, maintaining the same perspective. This shot portrays a unique fusion of periods and environments.
