The woman is moving, attending to things, the man watches. Fun products scroll across the screen as a break. We switch lives. The young girl now watches. Actually she has always been watching, bemused. The obvious things go unnoticed but not by her.

This movie was made with hand-drawn animation, 15 drawings per second and stop-motion with the "Wacky Stickers" (which is my collection for when I was a kid in the early 70's). Several scenes were rotoscoped from films from the 70's.
