There are a number of lighting techniques used in this image. For example, top lighting has also been used to show the actors facial features, as the setting is in a bathroom, the lighting is expected to come down from the top. Since this film is shot in neo film-noir style, everything is black and white. Another interpretation would be that the top lighting is making the plasters light, emphasizing the injury on the character, which also creates a narrative enigma. Furthermore, the extreme low key-lighting, by using this is shows a very strong contracts of light and dark. This creates if effect of Chiaroscuro, it could also connote (using binary opposition) who is hero and who is the villain. In addition, the use of low-key lighting is that it connotes that the character has a deep and dark personality.
