Yes, Aditya, this is a production draft (shooting script). Whenever we read a script by a writer-director, we have to set aside the supposed “rule” about not using camera shots and directing jargon in a screenplay because the writer often *does* do that in their scripts. Why? Because they are the *director* as well. The current stylistic convention is to avoid using specific camera and directing lingo. Read my article on handling scene description which discussed how to “direct” on the page w/o using that specific type of terminology.

Glad you enjoyed the movie. I did as well.
