Riding a Tricycle

This 1920s home movie, shot by longtime Corpus Christi resident Antonio Rodríguez Fuentes, may well represent some of the earliest produced by a Mexican-American filmmaker about the Mexican-American community in Texas. The footage first shows Fuentes, his wife Josefina, and four of their children exiting their home. Then, Fuentes steps behind the camera to capture his son Antonio Jr. riding a tricycle.
