The Dime (1976)

The Dime (1976, Little Red Filmhouse) This short film traces the journey of a single dime as it leaves the U.S. Mint and passes through many different owners and situations. Each exchange highlights the coin’s constant movement and shifting value in everyday life. Eventually, after countless changes of hands, the dime meets an ignoble end—lost down a sewer. The film serves as a simple but effective allegory about circulation, value, and impermanence.
