What does the cinematography of Oxygen look like?

Across 60 sampled frames, Oxygen builds its coverage from close-ups (50% of the sample), with medium shots (27%) carrying much of the rest. Cinematographer Maxime Alexandre keeps 47% of it in soft, low-key light. 45% of the frames play at night or in the failing light of dusk. Anamorphic glass shapes the frame. Focus stays shallow in 88% of the frames, isolating subjects from their surroundings.
