The crisps
“Twenty years of nights. This was dinner.”
Vertical 9:16 handheld selfie video, medium close-up. a 48-year-old Latina woman with dark hair in a tight bun streaked with grey, small gold hoop earrings, a black chef's jacket with rolled sleeves and faint old burn marks on one forearm stands in a restaurant back kitchen after closing, steel counters wiped clean, hanging pans and a single warm overhead light and holds a crumpled bag of vending-machine crisps up to the lens, shaking it once. She says, dry: "Twenty years of nights. This was dinner." Pools of warm light and dark corners, natural skin texture, shot on iPhone front camera, unpolished, vertical 9:16, kitchen extractor hum.
