A yellow snowplow truck clears a snow-covered street in Drexel Hill, Pennsylvania, in 1978. Shot on 8mm film, the footage captures the vehicle pushing snow through a residential area with bare trees and parked cars buried in white. A person walks along the sidewalk as the plow moves steadily forward, its headlights on against the overcast winter day. The grainy, nostalgic quality of the Super 8 home movie evokes a sense of everyday life during a heavy snowfall.
