A young child in a blue dress with white trim explores a dimly lit room in this 1961 8mm home movie from Salton Sea, California. The grainy, blue-tinted footage captures the child moving through the space, interacting with objects on a table, including a newspaper and a cylindrical container. The intimate, handheld camera work and vintage film quality evoke a nostalgic, personal moment from mid-century domestic life.
