Shot on 8mm film in 1964, this vintage home movie captures a young boy in a blue shirt and dark pants tending to wildflowers along a quiet dirt road in Elkhart, Illinois. The scene unfolds in a sun-drenched rural setting, with lush green trees lining the path and daisies dotting the grassy verge. The boy bends down to examine the flowers before running down the road, his movements captured with the characteristic grain and color shift of Super 8 film. The footage is shot from a moving vehicle, with the car's frame visible in the foreground, adding a nostalgic, personal perspective to this slice of Americana.
