Shot returns to pan right from torn clothing to blood droplets on grass/leaves

Camera switches back to person running through field towards the camera. The character will flick their hair towards the camera as they look behind. This can be seen as an example of ‘male gaze’ (Laura Mulvey 1975) as it is a stereotypical act to express sexuality.
