A video-picture is projected by a video-projector onto a wall.The picture shows a slow camera-movement across the photo of a class of schoolgirls from 1904. The extreme close-up shows both the photograph’s many scratches and damages and the girls' faces, which, considering their age, are unusually serious and determined.The video is 6:30 minutes and is presented in an uninterrupted loop.
