Shot on 8mm film in 1959, this vintage home movie captures a public ceremony at a crowded stadium in South Dakota. The grainy, green-tinted footage shows a raised platform with attendees and a table, surrounded by a hedge. A seal performs on the field, its dark shape visible against the grass. Spectators in period clothing watch from the stands, with a line of people in light-colored dresses walking across the field. The low-resolution, nostalgic quality reflects classic 1950s amateur film.
