A young woman, possibly of Asian descent, with a long, black braid over her right shoulder, wearing round tortoiseshell glasses and an orange linen V-neck T-shirt, stands outside in the shade of what looks like the courtyard of a housing complex. Behind her is the closed door of a unit, and beside the door, along a wall that juts out toward her at an angle, is an open window. The door and wall are beige. Her right wrist rests on a black iron railing, which on at least three sides fences in what looks like a birch tree, with a white skinny trunk and long thin branches dropping down with round green leaves.

A middle-aged Latina with long, brown hair, tortoiseshell glasses, and matte red lipstick stands outside beneath a lush, green, backlit tree, wearing a white T-shirt and blue jeans, a gold ring on her right hand and a watch on her left wrist. She holds a sheaf of papers and what might be a phone in both hands as she speaks to what might be an unseen audience beyond and to the right of the camera. Behind her, to her left, is a dark blue tent with a handwritten sign on top. The words visible are "Alto a ... " on the top line and "Stop ... " on the bottom line. Behind her, to her right, is the top of a second, white tent. Barely visible in the background is what looks like a storefront, indicating this might be in a city park.
