'The Blue Horse' Opening Sequence

The Blue Horse - 2009 - Roald van der Laan
(IMDb) (Opening Sequence)

• The opening to this film is made up of lots of extreme close-ups of a blue crayon drawing lines on a white sheet of paper, eventually revealing that they are drawing a scrawled frontward-facing blue horse.

Features I liked:

• the use of close-ups showing the lines being drawn because it makes it look abstract and artistic
• the use of one handwritten blue letter in each name in the credits, keeps the credits in with the theme of the opening

• the fact that the film begins with an enigma, it is not explained what the significance of the blue horse is
• the part when the hand slips on the paper as it is drawing with the blue crayon and leaves a messy blue mark on the paper, gives an unstable sense to the film or to the main character
