A woman in a black sweater and patterned dress walks down the porch steps of a house in Clear Lake, California, in 1939. She carries a large bag as she descends, meeting another woman in a light-colored blouse and head covering who stands waiting. The two exchange items on the porch before walking together through a leafy yard. Shot on 8mm film, this vintage home movie captures a quiet, candid moment with natural lighting and classic mid-century clothing and architecture.
