Shot on 8mm film in 1973, this vintage footage captures a bus driver from behind as he navigates a bustling urban street in Mexico City. The view from inside the bus shows the driver's silhouette against the bright, overexposed windshield, with a ceiling fan and rearview mirror visible. Outside, the street is lined with buildings and trees, and the film's characteristic grain and color shift evoke a strong sense of nostalgia. The clip offers authentic archival footage of public transportation in 1970s Mexico City.
