A criminal woman is brought in by the police to be photographed (a mug-shot, presumably), capturing her making faces or grimacing. This simple, short film has been often cited as an early instance of a "tracking-in" or dolly-in in cinema, where the camera moves closer to the subject instead of remaining fixed. It was likely directed by Wallace McCutcheon Sr.
