Directing style
Michôd anchors his tense, lonely dramas at eye level, favoring medium and wide shots that maintain a grounded, observational distance from his characters. He relies primarily on natural light from the sun or windows to illuminate exteriors and interiors alike, rendering his worlds through a predominantly cool, desaturated color grade built on a palette of earthy, muted drabs, deep shadows, and stark whites. This bleak atmosphere is reinforced by a shallow depth of field that isolates subjects against their oppressive, softly blurred environments.
