An international student in Manhattan digitises copies of the communist newspaper the Daily Worker, reflecting on both her mother’s history and her own precarious future.

In a dark preservation lab in New York City, international student Ting Su works to digitise archival film negatives from the Daily Worker, the communist newspaper begun in Chicago in 1924. What starts as a fascinating time capsule soon becomes a deeply personal study of the history of labour, the meaning of work and the perilous status of seeking a permanent visa.
