Shot on 8mm film in 1969, this archival footage captures a devastating flood in Savage, Minnesota. Muddy brown water submerges a park-like area, with bare trees standing waist-deep in the floodwaters. A wooden pedestrian bridge is partially submerged in the distance, and a small building is nearly engulfed by the rising water. The scene is viewed through a dark frame, likely a window, adding a sense of personal observation. The film exhibits natural grain and slight motion blur, characteristic of vintage home movie footage. The overall mood is somber and reflective, capturing a moment of nature's power and the quiet aftermath of a disaster.
