Seraphina is waist-deep in the murky waters of a South Texas river, fleeing a cartel stronghold with a small group of survivors. The scene is captured in a medium close-up, the golden hour sunlight filtering through the dense foliage and glinting off the water. Her delicate soft features are tense with concentration, her Latvian-Mongolian heritage reflected in her fair skin and dark, almond-shaped eyes. She’s dressed in soaked tactical gear, her camouflage jacket clinging to her form as she moves through the water. Her hair, a rich auburn, is slicked back and wet, framing her face in wild tendrils. In her hands, she holds a Glock 19 with a mounted flashlight, the weapon steady despite the treacherous footing. Her gear is adorned with microfiber patches to dry off quickly, with a tactical knife strapped to her thigh. Cinematographer Greig Fraser uses the warm light of the setting sun to create a stark contrast between the serenity of the natural environment and the tension of their escape. The camera stays close to Seraphina as she leads the group through the river, her eyes scanning for any sign of pursuit as they move toward freedom. Directed by Denis Villeneuve, from River of Shadows
