A 1950s era 8mm home movie of a living room dance party. Most likely from the Southside of Chicago. It's a little abstract because they (probably accidentally) filmed the whole thing in close-up.
Back then they would use light bars to set the lighting. Giant bulbs that get very hot in 10 seconds and heat the room. Very dangerous, but they seem to be having fun.
