A small, warmly lit, urban apartment that has clearly been forcefully burgled. The shot focuses on a quirky elderly woman, who is more troubled by the missaying of her favorite quote, which was scrawled amidst the chaos, than the evident intrusion. As she traces the misspelling on the wall, the depth of focus recedes revealing the distressed yet colorful fauna wallpaper behind her, giving a hint of her scientific interest- speciation. The camera is at a low angle, focalizing her strength in adversity. A skewed frame emphasizes the disruption in the balance of her normally organized world. Purposeful movement from the subject showcases her determination amid the mess.
