Macro and micro features of a film help explain the context. Macro being big ‘ideas’ like narrative and genre and micro being smaller ideas like sound, editing, cinematography, and mise-en-scene.

In this scene, the sound used, specifically in the beginning where the young boy is going under then coming back out of the water is useful for the audience to know which perspective is being used. This indicates that the perspective is of the boys but also shows the confusion of the whole scene and the characters within the scene, like the boy’s mother.

For other non-diegetic sound, the music in most of the scene’s background is a mix between Indian sounds and Who Wants to Be a Millionaire’s theme. This mixes the two locations of India’s streets and the WWTBAM studio and shows that the main character may have been subconsciously thinking about the incident while answering the questions.
