Description

Brief assortment of scenes begin with a man marking out white lines on a tennis court before there are shots of a wedding as the bride, groom and party are showered in confetti. The film returns to the tennis court where a match takes place. It ends with a comic scene featuring people in costume and one man, dressed as a sailor, performing a dance and falling over.
