Why it works
The opening moves from an empty sheet to a mark and causal chain by shot 4, so the visual grammar is established before the contradiction. The 267-frame diagram hold in shot 11 gives the premise reading time, while shots 28–43 turn the causal chain into a real paper loop. The 258-frame qualification in shot 82 keeps the conclusion limited before the separate filmed invitation starts at frame 3473.
