Abstract
A home movie documenting Doug Armstrong's second birthday.
Description
The first shot shows Doug, a toddler, and two slightly older children sitting in front of a white frosted birthday cake. Then, he is standing in front of the cake, grasping the handle of a knife. An adult figure, perhaps his mother, grasps his hand and helps him cut a slice of cake. Doug sits down in front of the cake and appears to babble. His gaze becomes fixed on a toy another child is playing with, and the camera pans to show the other two children at the table.
