Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8) The major theme in the production, as is explained in the text, is the boy's experience of the horrors of violence. In the final scene, when the central event is the crowning of his father as the next emperor, director Jane Howell chose to instead focus on Young Lucius and Aaron's dead baby, rather than the inauguration, the implication being that even the young are not free from the cycles of violence. Her use of focus to help convey this idea (the 'main' event in the scene is out of focus and the silent event in the foreground is in focus) is discussed in the article.
