D’Amato’s technical crudeness (day-for-night shooting, mismatched stock footage, dubbing) creates a dreamlike discontinuity. In a hypothetical Queen of Elephants 2 , the jarring cuts between actual Saharan landscapes and studio sand pits would enhance the surreal, almost psychedelic quality – turning budgetary limits into a stylistic signature.
