Why it works
The opening makes a dated, concrete incident the entry point, reveals the trap at 0:39, and asks the central question by 0:58 before explaining the system. The measured six-minute opening alternates long animated compositions with subsecond montages, producing 87 detected shots and 21.8 total picture changes per minute; a replay peak at 3:46–3:57 aligns with concrete marketplace examples. The full video runs 18:50, beyond this six-minute measurement.
