Setting - where imagination is banned, not allowed. I believe the time would be within one to two century because the torment they did to the boy was kind of similar to electric chair.(just guessing)
Conflict - the conflict I see in this video is between the boy and the group of people who are against imagination. Partial conflict against himself(his imagination)
Climax - the climax of this story is when his imagination began to collapse and he couldn’t see the mermaid anymore.
Symbol - the symbol for this story is the fish/mermaid. The fish symbolizes creature’s life.
Irony - the irony of this story is that his strong belief and imagination actually turned him into a mermaid.
Theme - what we can learn from this story is despite the fact that there are times where society tries to take control of everything and have lots of restrictions to us, we shouldn’t quit having creative thoughts.
