The Alley Scuffle

Shot on grainy 16mm film, heavy texture, muted indie palette, imperfect focus breathing. Night. A dim back alley behind a bar. A person in a jacket shoves another away and squares up, tense and raw, breath visible in the cold. A flickering security light, trash cans, wet brick. Harsh single-source light. Raw honest motion, verite soul, flickering exposure, 24fps.
