Shot on 8mm film in 1966, this vintage home movie captures a partially frozen field in Madison, Wisconsin, during a clear winter day. The footage shows a stream with ice floes breaking apart and drifting, surrounded by snow-covered ground and distant trees. The final frame reveals a handwritten title card confirming the location and date: Madison, Wis., March 31–April 3, 1966. The film exhibits classic Super 8 grain, color fading, and natural light, evoking a nostalgic, archival feel. This authentic 1960s home movie offers a quiet, observational look at seasonal change in a northern American landscape.
