The third self sits down the table which other two beings already sat on. As soon as she puts her knife on the table, it changes into the key with the sound of the drum. Sound in this part stirs up the tension and emphasizes the reversal paralleled with transition of the shots. During the course of two self-beings' taking the key, sound-tempo and timber of the pipe and drum- is almost same and has regular pattern. But the stark sound is heard at the moment the third picks up the key and turns her hand inside with the visual stimulus, colored palm and knife changed from the key. Sound at this point makes suddenly frightening mood.
Editing of this sequence is remarkable. Maya often uses trick though the editing to express the free shift of time and space. The key continues to still be shown in the middle of the table after two self-beings' grabbing it. Furthermore, when third being goes forward the real-being taking a nap, the shots of the walking foot destruct the continuity of the space as jump cuts and are punctuated as the expansion and the transition of the dimension.
The tense as self-being in the dream goes to the real being sleeping in the real world is rising up and the shocking turning point happens through the change of POV. Before she wakes up, POV in the scene is her self-being in the dream. But after she awakens by the knife approaching to her, POV is her real-being in the present. There is the connection between them. The former sees her and the latter does her husband. The interesting is that there is the knife shot between them.
And as soon as she sees her husband, she cover her sight with her hand. It makes us guess the knife has some relationship with her husband.
Even though this movie has the different form and style unlike the conventional movie, it offers hints to figure out the message and effect the director intends.
And we can share it by analyzing sound, editing and transiton of POV in the sequence goes toward the climax.
