Lonely, Carefree and Careless A Sunday in The Southland
Sunday in the Southland profiles everyday scenes from Huntington Beach to San Pedro. An elderly veteran watches from a Long Beach park bench while loneliness shadows his day. Children play at Huntington Beach State Park as a wheelchair user handles sand. In San Pedro fog drifts as seafront visitors enjoy the ocean but litter crowds the scene. A well dressed couple dumps trash from a late model Cadillac near California State College. Sunday life includes churchgoing families, quiet grief at Sunnyside Cemetery, and a boy scavenging scraps from a taco stand trash bin.
