A dark room with brown carpeting inside the Perez Art Museum Miami. In the background a film installation can be seen, on the ceiling is a projector. On the screen is a still image from Too Bright to See (Part I), a short film by Madleine Hunt-Ehrlich. A Black woman is seen in the still image, she wears red lipstick and her hair is up in a chignon, she wears a dark blue dress with small white flowers. Behind her stand three men, their faces are out of frame and not shown. They were comfortable summer suiting and hold newspapers.
