this prop page on the website of the (frankly amazing) calligrapher DOES unfortunately show a few sefirot diagrams, also without Hebrew, but i didn't notice them in the movie kaligrafnika.com/nosferatu/

the sigil however is a great example of using ceremonial styling without the fetishized Judaism
