Such a great film filled with so many different emotions. This is entirely different approach to recapitulate Giaccomo Puccini's original version of the opera, but it was extremely engrossing. Who is this woman, and what is the meaning of her synthetic body, in comparison to her lover's? As the video progressed it became clear that her lover and his new woman, were made to look like that to represent a sort of numbness. Her skin, not nearly as beautiful theirs', is symbolic of her humanity. She is natural. She feels and she hurts. She is destroyed by her lover's betrayal, meanwhile his smile seems to be permanent. He is careless in regards to her feelings. She loses her child, her soul, and as a result, her entire identity, causing her self-destruction. Ultimately, she is reborn, a new soul, like a butterfly fresh from it's cocoon.
