Description

Very brief shot of a woman in bridal wear, followed by a flash of a river and a lake. There are garden scenes: a woman hoeing, picking flowers, digging and then there are more garden scenes: gardening, people drinking and then what seems like a rehearsal for a wedding. A pair of girls repeatedly walk down a stretch of path in different clothes, followed by footage of snow - the garden covered over with it, roads with a layer of it, a man clearing a path and a woman struggling to walk in it. Another man amuses himself by throwing snowballs. In another scene, a mayor and mayoress enter and then leave a building. There is footage of crowds going to some event.
