PUEBLO MEXICO-1965: A yellow front-end loader operates in a harvested field, its bucket loaded with sugarcane stalks. A worker in a light-colored shirt and hat drives the machine across the dry, tilled earth under a hazy blue sky. The footage, shot on 8mm film, shows natural grain and slight color fading, capturing a moment of agricultural labor in mid-century Mexico. The scene is static, with the loader moving slowly from left to right, emphasizing the manual nature of the work.
