The opening sequence starts with a simple shot of the clear sky and sun as an establishing shot. This doesn't gives us much information in terms of the setting however by centering the sun right in the middle of the composition, it may suggest they are in a hot country. A voiceover is used during this shot by the film's main character, Gal Dove. In the short monologue we hear Gal's inner thoughts. He talks about how he currently feels and uses the words: 'roasting', 'sweating', 'boiling', etc. These words connote heat and reinforces the idea that he is in a warm/hot location. 
The following scene captures a high angled wide shot of Gal Dove laying down. The use of an high angled shot is to show he is right below the sun. The Director includes an interesting composition by the clever use of color scheme. He placed Gal in the center of the composition laid down on a white chair that blends in with the white floor and places certain objects such as a tanning lotion, beers and cigarettes near him. These objects have warm colors such as browns and yellows which create contrast when placed with cold colors such as white. The Director even gives the character a warm yellowish speedo to match with the objects on the floor. In terms of the choice of objects, it gives the audience a small idea of his personality/behavior by having him near beers and a pack of cigarettes. As well as giving the character a bad representation.
A wide shot continues to show his actions but most importantly the background, we now have a more clear idea of the setting as it shows a villa. This is used with the purpose to show his wealth. A non diegetic sound starts playing in the background as he stands up from seat. An upbeat, punk song plays, creating a "cool", chill atmosphere. Closeup shots are used briefly after as the man has a conversation with the pool boy. We start understanding Gal a bit more as a sketchy character by the way he treats the young boy rudely and by his attire and attitude.
Another interesting composition is created by using a high angled wide shot. The organized and symmetric composition leaves the audience visually pleased. This time the character is placed on the far left side of the composition and a pool occupies most of the space. The reason for this is for the audience to focus on the pool with tiles shaped like two hearts at the bottom, a view that is unusual therefore suggesting a woman's touch in the decoration. A cross cut is used to show another action taking place. An over the shoulder shot is used to film a woman driving a car. This immediately suggests to the audience that she may be linked to the character as a possible love interest.
Moving along, more to the near end of the sequence a sudden freeze takes place to reveal the title of the movie. The freeze captures the bottom part of the man's body as he stands up which creates humor. The title is in pink, bold letters. As the scene unfreezes the character wanders around the pool. His calm, careless attitude starts creating doubt in the audience and questioning how did he make his money. The scene cross cuts to a sudden point of view camera shot of a rock rolling down the hill. The slow paced shot of the rolling rock, lets the audience see from the far Gal standing by the pool, foreshadowing something will happen to him. A closeup shot is then used to show the rock fall in the pool and splash Gal. His reaction to this is quite unusual as he remains calm. This again makes him seem more like a sketchy character, as he perhaps doesn't "fear death"?
