Opening Titles

The opening title sequence of A Clear Midsummer Night is split into two parts, with different musical accompaniments. The first shows scenes as if they were on photo prints. The second is like it, but additionally the scenes appear to be viewed through a zoom lens. Both parts are split into a large number of short clips.

This page is still heavily under construction! If you have information on the clips, please feel free to contribute, but put the episode references where information has been added.
