导演斯蒂芬•拉德尔曼（Stefan Nadelman）的父亲谢尔登（Sheldon Nadelman）于1972—1982年间在纽约终点酒吧任服务生。这个坐落于第八大街和42街交界处的酒吧每天迎来送往各类人群，谢尔登在此期间从一名酒客手中收购一台二手相机，他闲暇之余拍下了穿行于酒吧和街头人们的相片，10年间累计拍摄2500万张，并将它们一一装裱，挂在墙上。每张照片里都有一段故事，每段故事都关乎着喜怒哀乐、人生百态，它们无声地见证着一座城市的历史，悉心保留着一群人日渐斑驳和模糊的记忆……
本片荣获2003年亚特兰达电影节最佳短片评审团大奖。

"This four minute film explores our response to stereotypes - aural, visual and ideological. Smith signals these stereotypes to the viewer through a chiefly associational system, which deftly manipulates the path of our expectations. The structure is stunningly simple and deceptively subtle. We are taken on a journey from one concrete stereotype to its diametric opposite, as images transform and juxtapose to, ultimately, invert our interpretation of what we see and hear." Gary Davis.
"This is hardcore cinema." Peter Kubelka, ‘What is Film’ lecture series, London 2001.

A nanny quits her job, and convinces all the other nannies in the apartment building to go out on strike. The strike spreads to the city, with nannies everywhere abandoning their charges, in the park and in the streets. A counter-protest of abandoned babies follows.
