Actors play roles of President Thomas Jefferson and a delegation of contemporaries in reenactment of a meeting at Monticello, Virginia, in 1802
Image of Thomas Jefferson overlaid briefly atop a view of Monticello near Charlottesville, Virginia. The date 1802 appears as camera zooms in on the front of the building and then inside, where actors in 18th century costumes play roles of Jefferson and a delegation of three contemporaries, visiting to discuss some matter with the President. They stroll and converse, with President Jefferson dominating the conversation, for the most part. Afterwards, the three visitors take their leave.
