Dollhouselike

Crucial to the meaning of this film is the scene in the dollhouselike Nicholai home where Dix theatricalizes his "crime" of killing Mildred Atkinson.

His dollhouselike sculptures, with a verisimilitude so great that you can read the brand name on the less-than-an-inch-high cans of spray paint, reveal a world inaccessible to the average art lover.
