Renowned as a paradigm of Raúl Ruiz's visual composition, this film creates a surreal atmosphere and poetic romance through breathtaking visual effects. Midway, it boldly experiments with various cinematic techniques and processing skills that shock the audience's viewing experience, leaving them uncertain about the story's progression every minute. Techniques such as constantly changing filters, reverse photography, and visual tricks echo the subversive style of Jean-Luc Godard. However, Raúl Ruiz's visual experiments maintain a sense of reality by weaving a common surreal flavor from two seemingly unrelated stories—the bizarre experiences of a serial killer and a socially withdrawn protagonist.
