  3. A woman with reddish-brown hair and tearful, red-rimmed eyes looks up with an anguished, frightened expression, clutching the sleeves of a yellow sweater and brown coat close to her chest. She stands in a room with pink butterfly-patterned wallpaper, framed folk-art-style house illustrations with red roofs and patterned facades hanging on the wall beside her.

  4. An older male performer (David Byrne) in a light grey suit stands center stage, raising one hand with fingers spread, wearing a headset microphone. Behind him, two backing performers in darker grey outfits strike dynamic poses with arms raised, against a dark draped backdrop. A guitar neck is visible at the far left edge of the frame.

  6. Two figures stand on a vast, arid coastal flat under a pale, hazy sky. In the foreground, an older man with silver-streaked hair and a full grey beard wears a coarse, draped olive-green robe, his expression stern and weathered. Behind him, a younger woman in cream-coloured linen — a sleeveless dress and a loose head wrap — looks forward with a furrowed brow. The landscape stretches behind them: shallow tidal mudflats reflecting muted light, with low rocky ridges visible in the far distance. The overall palette is desaturated and sun-bleached.

  12. Three South Asian musicians perform outdoors on a colorful patterned rug. The central figure wears a vivid red embroidered vest with tasseled fringe and a red-and-purple striped turban, playing a double-piped wind instrument (likely a satara/algoza). To the left, a man in a white kurta and embroidered vest plays a stringed instrument resting on his lap. To the right, a man in a blue cap and patterned vest plays a dhol-style hand drum. A fourth partially visible person sits behind them. The backdrop shows a mud-brick structure and dense green trees under a hazy sky.

  18. A dimly lit interior scene showing two people facing each other in what appears to be a worn, dark-walled room. On the left, a Black woman with long braided hair wears a yellow corduroy jacket over a brown fleece vest, holding a bundle of fabric at her side. On the right, an elderly white man with white hair and a beard leans against a dark wooden door frame, dressed in a colorful blue-and-green striped sweater beneath an open blue jacket and navy trousers. A red object hangs on the wall in the background. The atmosphere is tense and theatrical.

  19. A dark-haired woman wearing a blue and green tartan three-piece suit stands alone in the manicured formal gardens of a large Victorian-era country house. She looks downward with a composed expression. Behind her, the stone and red-brick mansion features ornate architectural details, tall chimneys, and rows of large windows. The symmetrical garden is lined with clipped topiary shrubs and hedges. The overcast sky gives the scene a cool, moody atmosphere.

  20. A close-up still of a young woman with long dark hair, her face partially illuminated against a dark, shadowy background. She has a bloody wound near her right eye, with streaks of blood running down her cheek. Her expression is wide-eyed and fearful, mouth slightly open. The overall tone is dark and atmospheric, consistent with horror film cinematography.

  21. Brum Rising: Indie & Rock

  22. An elderly man with long white hair and a full white beard stands in a book-lined study, reading a small open book he holds in both hands. He wears a white shirt under a gray cardigan and long gray robe. The warm, dimly lit room features a bookshelf packed with leather-bound volumes, an antique wall clock, ornate gold-patterned wallpaper, a black articulated desk lamp, a globe, and stacks of papers and books on a cluttered desk in the foreground.

  24. This still frame shows a young girl with long dark hair sitting cross-legged in dry summer grass, wearing a teal and green floral swimsuit. She holds a small camcorder in both hands and gazes off to the side with a serious, focused expression. Beside her on the grass is a large yellow water balloon attached to a hose, with a pink balloon visible further back. Partially visible around her are other children's legs, and in the blurred background stands a trampoline frame and trees lit by warm, golden light suggesting late afternoon or early evening.
