Christmas then and now. The bourgeois idyll of times long ago, tinkling bells under the Christmas tree, captured with an 8mm home movie camera – now rediscovered and set against the original soundtrack of an online video course in creative nail design for Christmas, using ‘Color Victim’, a particularly long-lasting nail polish..
