A reclining nude female figure stretches dramatically across the upper half, while a monochrome mirrored figure occupies the centre beneath her. Between them, an ornate eye-shaped photographic montage contains fragmented portraits from the film, including \u003cstrong\u003eTerence Stamp\u003c\/strong\u003e, producing an appropriately dreamlike and psychologically charged composition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe stark pale background and skeletal trees are punctuated by the extraordinary Japanese title \u003cstrong\u003eテオレマ\u003c\/strong\u003e, rendered in loose, almost hand-painted \u003cstrong\u003egreen, violet, black and blue characters\u003c\/strong\u003e.
