Join Lewis Rosenberg and his friends on holiday in Guernsey where they milk cows, feed chickens, lark about on the beach and attempt to surf
This unique film from Lewis Rosenberg shows holiday scenes on Guernsey during the late 1930s, starting with the friends helping out on a farm, enjoying their bucolic surroundings, before heading for the beach where they lark about and attempt to surf the waves into the sunset. When the holidays end we see the group board steamers heading back to Portsmouth. The line of Admiralty trawlers in the Portsmouth roads hint at the menacing world situation in the late summer of 1939.
