Dissolution was used as a technique to show that the two brothers were the same young adults, it also gave a sense of time passing. This was done by the fuzzy-like home recordings contrasting to the more modern, clear shots of the men. I also think the adult at the front could be the older brother leading the younger sibling-looking after him which is a continuous theme as he does so when they're children as well.
Throughout the scene I felt that the two characters had been very close when younger and growing up, but had possibly become more distance over time and the relationship was not as strong, this is done by using wide shots to suggest isolation. As an audience, we can't see the two older characters faces- which means we can't read their emotions, contrasting to this we see a lot of emotions and feelings when they are younger.
The music for this scene links to the sequence very well and it runs through both eras. As I listened to the lyrics I heard things such as 'my ideals have got me on the run' and 'connection with everyone'. This implies that the two men are going back home possibly for a family reason as the music suggests that and the home-recordings are very family orientated. Another clue to this is the fact that they both know exactly were to go travelling on the roads, through forests and fields.
