Henriette watches the falling snow |
| Description: |
The camera pans slowly upward on an exterior shot from the ballroom to the Duchess's room, perhaps suggesting that Henriette is looking out of her window; this is accompanied by a chromatic rising sequence that creates growing tension; music is the only element in the soundtrack |
