Review of We see it all: life through the eyes of a photo developer

Intriguing insights from a photo lab developer regarding the photos of people he has seen through the years. Suggests he's not seen any one family grow up, but has seen collections of many families. Pieces and parts of people lives, in successive convolutions.
Narration is minimal, just enough provide extra focus.
The subject is very serious about his work, and this makes the interview that much more interesting. Narrative chases the ironic aspects of this point of view.
This is a nice, simple, sound piece. Producer lets the subject tell his story with little interference. One gets the feeling this photo lab technician would espouse at length on any number of subjects given the opportunity.
The piece draws you in. It's enjoyable.
