Claude Levi Strauss
The opposites that are apparent in this short film are land and sea as well as before and after. We can see that the man begins on land and then is caught into the water. So safety and danger is a theme. However, this short film conveys a role reversal which complies to Levi's theory of Binary Opposites. An example of this is night/day, good/bad and light/dark. So in this case the narrative is a direct opposite.
