Fade-out.

All initial credits succeed in fusion. The film’s credits [1], with thick and dripping white letters on a black background, are in a graphical style not properly connected to the film’s style, where the dramatic quality is always repressed: we know indeed that the titling was conceived by the author in a different form. The name of the director stands out [8]. In the last card [9], the character’s anonymity is predicted, which has an universal validity. The reason why Brutus Pedreira is marked with the initials D.G remains dubious. The fact that there is no other indication is anomalous, mainly of the participation of the then already famous Carmen Santos. A fade out follows (darkening).
