Creator / Collector

Description
Family moments in Central Park, New York. The shots come from a hand winding Revere camera, behind which is the father of the collector, since he was barely four years old.

We follow the efforts of a baby to crawl, we see friends of Athanasoglou's mother, the young collector playing with the dog, and his mother who takes care of them. An ice cream in hand and a ride with other children on a small carriage being dragged by a pony.

Central Park is located in the heart of Manhattan, construction work began in 1857 and the place is beautyfully landscaped.

It contains artificial lakes, hiking trails, a zoo, two skating rinks, grassy areas, and is an oasis for migratory birds.

Creator's description


The film in Central Park, New York is the first of my film series. My father saw in a shop, a hand winding Revere camera and he filmed me at the park. My next films that follow are black and white as my father could not find color film in Egypt.
