/* V92 — decisive Student stories hero video seam/crop fix.
   The previous seam rules removed the section margin, but the first visible
   video frames still read as a dark gutter under the page menu. Crop the
   background video upward inside this page only, so moving image reaches the
   page-menu rim without affecting Life on the French Riviera or Life in Paris. */
