"My ride in leather boots with a stubborn car"

Duration: 33:33 minutes

Scenario:

Today, in her beloved platform boots, Christina wants to take an old car, built in the early '70s, for a little spin. Of course, she knows about the engine's unreliability. On the way, when she has to stop, it stalls and she has to painstakingly restart it over and over. But even at the beginning of the clip, Christina already has significant trouble starting it. She rhythmically pumps the gas pedal while the starter sounds so beautiful. She hopes and worries that the engine will start soon and talks to it reassuringly. Christina spends a little over five minutes cranking this car. Then finally she succeeds and can drive off.

A few short revving moments follow to warm up a little, before she carefully backs the driveway off the property. Alternating from the rear-, from the passenger side in her face, and also from the pedal perspective, Christina can be seen driving the old car through the streets. The engine stalls again and again when stopping. This scenario keeps repeating itself. But especially when Christina parks this stubborn car in a parking lot and only returns after quite a while, the following starting difficulties are now significant.

After about six minutes of futile attempts to start it, rhythmic gas pedal pumping, and some encouraging words, the engine finally starts again. Relieved, Christina can begin the drive back. But once again, the familiar problem. Finally, having arrived home and driven up the driveway to the property, the engine stalls again. Of course, Christina could just get out now and leave the car as it is, but she wants to try starting the engine once more. After approximately three minutes, the engine starts again. For about a minute, Christina gives the stubborn car several revving attempts. Then she turns off the engine, gets out, and heads towards the house. 

These recordings were made in 2011. In the preview, all the scenes from the clip are briefly shown.
