Scalbe, as if grieving for something else, smears his face with ashes from the burnt certificate of the death of his ex-fiancée, who is actually alive. Lhamo puts one white pebble on the scale before the lord of hell, as if she was already over her soul on the day of Judgment, although she is still alive. The inexplicable impossibility of solving a simple question of marriage face to face pushes the characters of the picture to search for an exit into the realm of the invisible: pushed by persistent karma, they come to self-accusation or self-justification, which, however, does not cause consequences in real life, leaving the viewer to guess about the need for such actions to imitate grief or death in the face of omniscient karma.
