Bresson is the director of "The Trial of Joan of Arc." Joan is perceived at trial in a series of medium shots, shots and reverse-shots, as a prisoner. Fragmentation is achieved by a series of continuity shots of tables, doors and rooms by deframing. This process makes space unspecified and into "any-space-whatever" so that it can be linked in many other ways as "pure locus of the possible."
