Let's talk about ALIEN STAGE and IvanTill (ROUND 3 SPOILERS)
this is probably gonna be a part one, I have so much to say...
As Ivan starts to sing "Black Sorrow" we're shown a flashback of his "childhood": an alien got him in his fist, making him dangle on the edge of a tall building.
However, Ivan doesn't reserve him a single glance. The alien is in the right bottom corner. Ivan's looking at the sky. His eyes are full of those starts and lights that cross the dark and nothing else exists in his sight other than the blue night sky.
His character is often associated with deep, blueish tones, as we can see in ROUND 3 where he's wearing a suit that makes him look almost embraced by the sky around him.
Things start to change when we arrive at the scene that shows us Ivan and Till escaping from the Garden:
his deep, blue sky is now red. And the white, sparkly shooting stars become burning meteors. The stars are almost all covered by the flames. While running, he doesn't even look at it: he's heading forward, feeling Till's hand in his own, and suddently the sky that lit his eyes for so long doesn't exist anymore.
Notice how the meteors are falling to the left, while Ivan and Till are running in the opposite direction. It's almost like they're separating themselves from a destiny that will bring them to crash on the floor just like the said meteors.
They're free. They won't catch fire and fall on the ground.
But then, Till fears that freedom, scared of a path still unsure, probably running back to that devotion he feels for Mizi, for whom he's ready to give up a chain-less future.
He heads left and he starts to follow the direction of the meteors again. He chooses to crash. And above Ivan's head, on the right corner, the sky starts to turn black again.
