There are some things that the film-maker chooses to put in this scene. Such as the tall buildings and pile of rubbish and junks. The film maker chooses to put this here as it is uses the technique of contrast. Contrast between the ruined Earth. The tall buildings represents the advanced and nice environment we once lived in whereas the pile of rubbish and junks symbolizes the place now. Dirty and Untidy.
The reason why the pile of rubbish beside overlapped the tall buildings(how the pile of rubbish is much taller than the buildings) is because the film maker is trying to make a point. That the earth now is a really dirty place, not like what it all used to be. Beautiful and full of life.
Good description of the mise-en-scene and how it creates a contrast. Can you explain how these elements were contrasted and what the director is suggesting about the parallels between the world of the film and the modern world? Check my blog for some more general suggestion about what to add for merit/excellence.
