content: Full film record shot in Gallup, New Mexico, depicting activities associated with Fourth of July celebrations both at home and at a rodeo. Initial footage is of a private pool where men, women, and children swim at leisure and pose for the camera. Camera then depicts public spaces in Gallup, including an apparent interaction with a small child. Men await the rodeo on horses and in automobiles, then form a parade; scenes at the rodeo include men riding bucking broncos and roping calves, as well as general fairground footage.
