Strong rule: style --- 3D Pixar-style Animation ---. A vertical split-screen. On the left, Alex is in his dark, messy apartment, looking downcast. On the right, Anna is in a bright, luxurious beauty salon, getting her nails done. She looks radiant and polished, looking into her own phone with a frown. The contrast between poverty and luxury is stark.
Character appearance reference (MUST match exactly):
- Alex: A 25-year-old Asian man with a sharp jawline and deep-set, expressive eyes. In the present, he has neatly styled black hair and wears a high-end black silk button-down shirt. In the flashback, his hair is messy, and he wears a faded, oversized grey t-shirt. He has a lean build and a complexion that looks pale under harsh lighting. The style is cinematic realism with sharp focus on facial expressions, set against high-contrast urban environments.
- Anna: A beautiful young woman with long, perfectly styled chestnut hair and professional makeup. She wears a trendy pastel-colored blouse and expensive-looking jewelry. Her expression is often bored or expectant. She is seen in a high-end, bright beauty salon with soft ring lighting and minimalist decor. The style is vibrant and clean, contrasting with Alex's darker environments.
