Sometimes the best way to enjoy a snowfall is from a window while sipping on a hot beverage. With that in mind, we invite you to slow down, settle in and embrace the stillness of the season with us as we premiere a new Slow Moments film* that explores a familiar Indiana landscape in winter: Cataract Falls.
The film, which we created in partnership with 12 Stars Media, captures the beauty and brightness that accompanies a fresh snowfall and the sounds of fast-moving water flowing over cliffs and around rocks. Like our Next Indiana Campfires series, our film uses excerpts from Indiana writers to encourage connections between nature and literature and to spark conversations about Indiana’s future.
