Mise-En-Scene for Kickass.
The setting of this film can be seen because of the background, you can see books on a personal bookshelf, they are in a office and from the camera angle you can determine that the main person in this scene is the little girl "Mindy", there is one key light and that is the light above the mans head, from the facial expression on the girl you can see that she is angry, most likely towards the person which she is holding her fist to. The person in the chair looks like he is leaning back to try and avoid being hit by the girl meaning that he may be a bit frightened, however, when you look in great detail you can see that he has his hands around the girl, meaning that he may be about to get her, so he could have anger towards her also, so it is a mutual feeling in the scene.

The costume of the girl makes her look like a superhero, she has the mask and the strange suite which a superhero would wear, so it looks like she is almost playing but from her actions you can tell that she isn't, the older man however, is wearing a suite, he looks like he is in quite a rich house due to the bookshelf and his suite, he might be a buisness man, but due to the nature of the film, you can see that because it is a young girl which is against him that he is most likely a bad person, a criminal or along those lines.
