Directing style
Shults constructs suffocating, insular worlds by favoring tight medium shots and closeups captured almost exclusively at eye level, trapping the viewer in the immediate physical space of the characters. He shoots primarily in night interiors, relying on shallow depth of field to isolate subjects against dark, indistinct backgrounds illuminated by practical fixtures, windows, or soft daylight. The resulting atmosphere is tense and lonely, rendered through a muted color palette dominated by cool, desaturated tones, deep earth tones, and bruised, dark wood hues.
