Welcome to

Another scene that proves he has fallen in love with her is when Ana holds his heart in her hands as they dance. The syuzhet inserts fantasy sequences between the reality to show that the film is about love, poetry, and fantasy. Also this parallel structure between reality and fantasy dislocates the audiences perception of time. There are no cues about time, time is not important. What is important is Oli’s quest for love.
Oli’s immaturity is emphasized when he is next to Lady Death. She has a steady job and seems responsible about her actions. Oli is a poet and must earn money buy selling his poetry. He only makes money when he has to whether it is for rent or a prostitute. Money is of no importance to him. What is important is for him to find a woman who can fly. Oli’s fantasy life and reality go around and around like a circle, making the temporal structure circular as well. The frequency of Oli playing with his train shows not only his childlike immaturity, but also his quest for love. He seems to not be going anywhere with the woman he meets.
