Filmed in London, this static, uncut shot draws the viewer's attention between a shadowy image of two men fixing a rooftop and of a man entering and leaving the frame while he mows a lawn. The mundaneness of this image is suddenly replaced by the man stopping for a moment to cautiously look around, briefly interrupted by a woman and child walking past, before urinating against a wall.
