Acapulco, Mexico, circa 1950 home movie footage shows a young woman in a vivid blue peasant blouse, blue skirt and matching headband at a balcony rail. She stands with one hand on her hip and the other on a pierced brick lattice, facing the camera with a faint smile. Palm fronds, dense tropical leaves, a red blossom and a tiled roof edge fill the background. The single steady shot is taken from slightly below with a tilted frame, so the rail runs diagonally.
