In a cramped backroom garment workshop, an elderly courier slits the felt applique of a poodle skirt to extract a strip of microfilm, her eyes darting toward the frosted glass door. Shot on Kodak Double-X 5222 with a wide-angle Baltar lens, the low-key lighting carves stark angles through the darkroom print, leaving thin, grainy grey shadows and heavily burnt-in edges.
