Apparently everybody was simply having a great time in this Lumière short film from almost 120 years ago. The men were sack racing, the women were applauding and laughing and sometimes somebody fell down too the ground, but stood up with a smile on his lips. What i found most interesting about this short film of 35 seconds was that we see the director's hand near the end where he was gesturing towards the people where to walk. Film was at a very early stage at this point and this is of course a silent black-and-white movie. The director is Louis Lumière, a French film pioneer and he made so many movies that it's almost impossible to watch them all, maybe some are lost as well. Okay effort by him here. Not outstanding, but not bad either and the joy in the people's eyes is a nice reason to watch this one.
