Shot on 8mm film in 1969, this vintage home movie captures a flooded park in Savage, Minnesota. Bare trees stand in murky water, their reflections rippling on the surface. A picnic table and wooden planks float amidst the floodwaters, with a distant brick building and playground equipment visible through the trees. The footage shows a quiet, somber scene of nature reclaiming a recreational area, with the characteristic grain and color palette of Super 8 film.
