In my film Barthes codes of enigma is used when one of the main characters, Harry, walks off the stage when asked by the chat show host the reason why the band's song is so sad. The audience doesn't know why Harry has walked off and is keen to learn further.
Later we realise that the song is inspired by his girlfriend's terminal illness which we reveal in flashbacks.
Another example of how Barthes codes are used is through cultural codes. We understand the power of Harry and Melodie's relationship because they have been on dates and also shared presents. The Semantic code has been used when Harry gives Melodie a present.
