Across 65 sampled frames, Pandora’s Box builds its coverage from medium shots (49% of the sample), with close-ups (29%) carrying much of the rest. Cinematographer Günther Krampf keeps 63% of it in soft, low-key light. 71% of the frames play at night or in the failing light of dusk. Vintage glass shapes the frame. Focus stays shallow in 72% of the frames, isolating subjects from their surroundings. The production design places the film in the 1920s.
