CALIFORNIA-1936: Blue-collar workers in dark uniforms and hats labor on a sun-drenched railroad track in a dry, hilly landscape. Shot on 8mm film, the footage captures men using tools to repair the rails, with one worker in a straw hat and white shirt briefly appearing. The warm, faded colors and grainy texture evoke a nostalgic, archival feel, documenting a moment of industrial labor during a hot summer day.
