A young father and his son aboard a ferry as it passes by the Statue of Liberty in September of 1982. The father looks out towards the monument, but the gaze of the son is elsewhere. The silhouette of the boy's face, in particular his eyelashes, make the direction of his stare mysterious - is he looking back over his shoulder to see what is going on behind? Or is he looking up towards his father? A tender moment, with the window open, looking out towards the quintessential symbol of American freedom - one whose exact details will never be known.
