I am talking about scenes where lets say a woman loses her father and they show scenes of them at the beach when she was a child and her father was chasing her.

These kind of scenes look blurrier, greyish. I can’t describe.

And I can’t find a clip of what I mean. Maybe someone has a clip to something simular with that filter?

    The trick is to use a different filter than other scenes. It doesn’t really matters what filter, as long as it’s different. Also, cinematographers use different in-camera setups, different lenses, usually they use old school lenses with chromatic aberrations and distortions and so on, plus physical filters in from of the lens. They can also change the lighting, set decoration, actors can change their behavior, editors can change the rhythm and so on.

    The blurrier-gray-ish filter is usually a low contrast or blooming glass filter in front of the lens. Basically a piece of glass very lightly frosted that disperses the light around a bit before hitting the film/sensor.
