A still from the film An All-Around Feel Good by Jordan Lord. Prominent black borders are on the left, right and bottom edges of the image.  Framed by the black borders is an image of the Colorado State Fair, taken from the bleachers on a bright sunny day. The camera is facing outside the main stage, where there are horses and riders in a pen, numerous parked cars and a tractor, and several U.S. flags, and audience members both near the camera and across the stage. On the bottom is the caption "Belonging to the nation-state is not premised on seeing or attending".

A still from the film Voice of Democracy shows a dim living room, in which a tv hangs on the wall. The tv displays two older white people, the filmmaker's parents, sitting with a gold lamp in between them. The filmmaker's father looks angry and their mother looks concerned. The tv image is paused on a Youtube window, which reads: "Mom and Dad interview selects," below which a series of other videos are recommended including "The Biggest Snubs of the Olivier Awards," "Top 25 Roller Coasters," and "Food & Wine Festival." Reflected in a mirror below the television are the filmmaker's parents sitting in the same set-up as their image on the television, with the same gold lamp between them. They are looking across the room at the filmmaker, a 30-something white person with a buzzcut and a beard, who looks back at them with their arms folded and legs crossed, with a serious and sympathetic look. Their father is pointing at the television, saying something. In the center of the image, between the mirror and the television, is a caption that reads, "Why?"
