Gabbeh / int_246989a4	comment	Circling Vultures: Abbas says "Life is color!", and there's a sequence of the various dyes that the family uses to dye wool. Then he says "Death is—", and there's a cut to black, before a shot of a single vulture, circling in the sky. This introduces the sequence in which Gabbeh's little sister falls off a mountain pass and dies.

Gabbeh / int_7abba202	comment	The Faceless: Gabbeh's lover is only ever seen from a distance, on horseback, calling to Gabbeh by imitating the call of a wolf. Even at the end, where he comes galloping in to take Gabbeh away, the scene is shot from a distance, and all we can see is that Gabbeh's lover is young and has a beard.
