Peter’s various repairs at Anna’s Apartment symbolize Peter forcibly reintroducing himself into Anna’s life. Anna has started a new life with her husband in the new apartment, but as soon as Peter visits, he begins to alter everything by setting up Venetian blinds and organizing shelves among other things. This represents Peter’s need to have some degree of control over Anna’s life, because he wants to leave his mark in Anna’s new life.
