NEW YORK-1949: A young child in a red and black plaid coat with a red hood swings on a playground swing set. The child grips the chains, their face visible as they move back and forth. The scene is framed by a chain-link fence with trees in the background, suggesting a cold day. The footage, shot on 8mm film, shows natural motion and the characteristic grain of vintage home movies. The child eventually swings out of frame, leaving the empty swings and fence in view.
