Setting- This is set in the car of two people. They stop at a stop sign by deserted garages in the middle of winter, in the snow. The snow is used as the reason why the truck didn't break in time and crash into the red car. It is also set at night so the couple have more privacy with less people around. The car is in a building sight which may explain why there was a truck and why the truck driver wouldn't have expected a car to be there, especially at night.
Theme- The car is still running when they stop. making an engine noise in the background, which conveys it isn't a typical romantic moment. But the snow surrounding them makes it more romantical. The sound of the truck starts to get much louder than the sound of the car engine and then ruins the moment as they crash.
Icons- The snow, car, truck and seatbelt. As you learn throughout the film, the girl wouldn't have been thrown out the car if she didn't take her seatbelt off during her romantic moment.
