Create a dark, cinematic anime-style portrait of a {argument name="subject" default="young marionette woman"} seated upright like a suspended puppet, framed from head to thighs in a vertical composition. She has short wavy {argument name="hair color" default="dark teal hair with warm copper tips"}, a delicate neck, bare shoulders, and wears a pale ruffled {argument name="dress style" default="lolita ballet tutu dress"} with puffed sheer sleeves, a fitted bodice, frilled neckline, and layered skirt. Her face is deliberately hidden by a centered opaque dark square, making her identity anonymous and unsettling. Four long black marionette strings descend vertically from the top of the frame around her body, two crossing near the left side and two falling straight near the right, emphasizing that she is controlled. The dress is filled with dozens of glowing golden butterfly-shaped lights, concentrated across the bodice, waist, and skirt, casting warm amber illumination through translucent fabric and onto her skin. Use a moody teal-green studio background with soft vignette darkness, high contrast between cool shadows and warm butterfly glow, dreamy volumetric haze, rim lighting on hair and shoulders, painterly semi-realistic anime rendering, delicate fabric texture, melancholic atmosphere, and the emotional theme "{argument name="theme phrase" default="I thought I was free"}". No visible typography, no extra characters, no scenery beyond the dark background.
