During the lockdown, I discovered a love for vintage 8mm films, offering glimpses into everyday 50s and 60s American life. I bought a 1965 Bell and Howell Super 8mm camera, and those old films have inspired me to create my own, starring family, including our dogs and pet sheep. This new hobby lets present moments blossom into nostalgic memories for our future. It teaches that sometimes, stepping back to the past helps us appreciate the present more, turning ordinary moments into something exceptional.
