Why it works
A 75-frame presentation card delays the first image, then 80 shots repeatedly return to the same physical object across witness, archive, travel and crowd footage. The short archive run in shots 35–43 contrasts with the long memorial holds in shots 46–50; the object then moves through new hands in shots 55–79 before a 226-frame closing card.
