A man in a white uniform works with cement and mortar at a construction site in Cottonwood, Arizona, 1968. Shot on 8mm film, this vintage home movie captures a bricklayer laying bricks on a wall, using a trowel to spread mortar. The scene unfolds outdoors against a red brick wall, with natural daylight and the characteristic grain and color shifts of 1960s Super 8 footage. The man’s focused movements and the evolving brickwork offer a nostalgic glimpse into mid-century construction work and everyday labor.
