Shot on 8mm film in 1984, this vintage home movie captures a man riding an elephant pulling a massive wooden log through a Thai village. The elephant walks steadily past thatched-roof huts as a crowd of onlookers watches, some holding cameras. The footage shows the elephant's massive legs and trunk in close-up, with people in casual 1980s clothing observing the scene. The grainy, color-bleached quality of the Super 8 film adds to the nostalgic, archival feel of this candid moment from Thailand.
