The colours in the image are monochromatic meaning they are all very similar colours. It makes you think more about the context of the image because the feeling is not given off straight from the colours. We get the feeling that the boy is looking for a way out although the window is open the woman is blocking that escape and the gentleman is blocking the other door so the boy is cornered and there is no way out. The argument is over the parents wanting him to be how they want him to as appose to what he wants to be himself. The portrait behind the boy suggests that it could be himself but at a younger age. The camera becomes another subject that is blocking his need to escape the awkward situation. We guess that the situation is awkward by the way the boy is standing. The POV of the camera is of us the audience and since we are part of the society it makes it more difficult for the main subject as were supporting the parents as well.
