The same child remains seated in the corner of the room, but now looks up slightly when he hears a soft sound coming from outside the scene. The cold, bluish light continues to dominate, but a subtle yellowish reflection begins to appear on the side of the child's face, indicating a change in atmosphere. The shadows remain long and projected onto the walls, but there is a greater lightness in the child's expression, a glimpse of curiosity in his eyes. The camera, still with a 50mm lens in a medium shot, now makes a slight push-in, creating an emotional close-up. The surrounding environment remains unchanged, but the subtle change in lighting and the child's gaze conveys the beginning of an emotional transformation, suggesting a turning point in the narrative.
