The importance of composition in the cinematographic fact as a foundational and fundamental element can be better understood knowing the difference between types of composition. This inheritance of the photographic apparatus shows that the rupture of the institutional composition rises to different compositional options that break with the importance of the center, showing the possibility of enlargement of the image's meaning related to the elements that its creators choose when composing it. This is the case of Pawel Pawlikowski’s Ida (2013), whose cinematography and composition work adds meaning to each one of the images individually and in the whole of the film thanks to the chosen look marked by his photographic referents.
With the objective of showing these aspects this article analyses the film with concepts related to figurative, reflexive and aleatory composition. These concepts are reunited in a definition of what's been articulated as deframing.
