A cartoonist sketches out the grim stalemate of WWI through the metaphor of football.

This surviving fragment of an unidentified film is reminiscent of the famous Christmas ceasefire kickabout of 1914. Yet its message is much darker, as the Commanders in Chief of the French and German armies (Joseph Joffre and Kaiser Wilhelm II himself) are effectively committing their soldiers' lives to a long conflict in which a draw is not an option.

Lighting sketch with hand of artist of cartoon scene. Joffre and Kaiser Wilhelm and drawn on a football pitch with a ball marked "war" between them. The caption: "Joffre 'Draw! No, we go on to the end'" is written. The next sketch is of a well but is incomplete.

Note: there is no animation in this film
