Mr Light's remarkable film starts with scenes by a railway line in Hampshire and dogs out for a walk with their owners. Then we see two women board the Union Castle liner, Warwick Castle, at Southampton. After much waving the liner moves away from the quay and sets sail for Cape Town. We then move to, possibly, Hayling Island, where a group of friends frolic on the beach - enjoying a game of leapfrog, which is later filmed in slow-motion. The film ends at a pub and an outdoor meal.
