Within the Film Walker there is a mutant of some kind that is attempting to walk on a turntable but keeps falling and attempting to get a good walking stance on. It seems like due to the mutant's inability to actually have feet but instead have underdeveloped hands of some type for feet it became weak and tired and just sat down and gave up allowing the spinning table to spin him around for the rest of the film. To me this was very weird but also extremely sad as it looked like it was powerless from start to finish. The only principle of exaggeration that may be seen in this film is at (26 seconds) where the mutant was moving his legs in a fashion where it looked like he was dragging dead weight when in reality he actually was not. Contrast is used in the film "Walker" to portray a sense of far-ness as the turning table moved around with the mutant on it. It also gave a sense of loneliness as the mutant would go into a shadow sitting all by himself in a corner when the table actually turned in that particular direction.
