BIRMINGHAM ALABAMA-1957: Two workers in vintage 1950s attire install roofing materials on a sloped roof. One man in overalls carries a sheet of white insulation, while another in a blue plaid shirt and cap hammers shingles into place. The footage, shot on 8mm film, captures the manual labor of mid-century construction with natural lighting and authentic film grain. The scene is set against a backdrop of trees, showcasing a moment of blue-collar work from the era.
