Filmed in 1950 soon after Jonas Mekas arrived in New York, this short documents everyday life in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. It was the first film he shot with his 16 mm Bolex camera, but he did not edit and present the footage until 2003, making it both his earliest and one of his final works on film.
