What is Fireworks about?

A dissatisfied dreamer awakes, goes out in the night seeking a 'light' and is drawn through the needle's eye. A dream of a dream, he returns to bed less empty than before.

What does the cinematography of Fireworks look like?

Across 12 sampled frames, Fireworks builds its coverage from close-ups, with medium shots carrying much of the rest. High angles recur throughout. The lighting keeps almost all of it in soft, low-key light. Much of the film play at night or in the failing light of dusk. Vintage glass shapes the frame. Focus stays shallow in most of the frames, isolating subjects from their surroundings. The production design places the film in the 1940s.
