16mm, b/w, sound, 12:25, 2006

Filmed at my neighborhood corner store, a former Associated supermarket, from opening to closing on July 4, 2004 (Independence Day, U.S.). One roll of 16mm film shot every two hours or so reveals little except the unchanging patterns of the 14 hour workday.  Interview with owner Charles Leem reflects on the history of his store and his favorite musicians.
