A young blonde toddler in a dark sweater and blue pants toddles unsteadily down a sunlit suburban sidewalk in East Orange, New Jersey, in 1946. The child walks past a vintage dark-colored car, with a red tricycle visible on the grass nearby. In subsequent frames, a woman in a light-colored dress leans into the car, opening the door. Shot on 8mm film, the footage captures a candid moment of mid-century domestic life with authentic grain, color fading, and natural lighting.
