Shot on 8mm film in 1948, this vintage home movie captures a zoo scene in Washington DC. Two young African elephants walk through their concrete enclosure, their grey forms moving past a stone backdrop and leafy trees. A partially visible sign reads 'PLEASE KEEP BACK OF BARRIER'. The footage then shifts to a primate perched on a rock ledge within a similar rocky habitat. The grainy, color-bleached quality of the Super 8 film evokes a strong sense of mid-century Americana and archival nostalgia.
