At the start of the clip, the first thing you can see is how much more power the police officers have compared to the hotel staff. This is shown by the way the camera angle is positioned and they are blocking the one and only exit. The camera shows that the audience in the hotel have always been positioned facing them hinting that the officers and immigration officers are the bad guys. This also happens when the officers walk into the Hotel at the start as everyone them seems to become nervous and anxious. Non digetic sound is played at the beginning of the clip which is made to make the audience very serious and drafted in. The atmosphere in the hotel then seems to become very tense and serious as the staff are running through the corridors letting the immigrants know what's happening and to help them. Showing the panic of the immigrants they have and not wanting to leave even though their only doing cleaning jobs,or jobs that most people don't want, their still very happy doing what their doing. This shows that in the past in their lives it must of been difficult and they've came so far to be where they are today which then makes the audience feel sorry for them and sympathise. When The immigrants arrive in the storage room ready to hide, the extract then changes the audiences mind about immigrants and may be even understand them. The extract is a outing showing how people misunderstand immigrants and also the immigrants praying before they eat which then shows how grateful they are to be where they are today. This is seen as a very fast extract as their is a lot of chaos and running about and a lot of jump cuts in the extract to show the pace of what's happening which also creates tension in the scene.
