Roundhay Garden Scene is an 1888 short silent film recorded by French inventor Louis Le Prince. It is believed to be the oldest surviving film in existence, as noted by the Guinness Book of Records.

Synopsis

Une scène au jardin de Roundhay est un essai de film, tenté en 1888 par l'inventeur français Louis Le Prince. Ne comportant que des photographies fixes obtenues par un procédé de chronophotographie, cette tentative n'a jamais pu être visionnée en mouvement. En 1930, les photographies ont été reproduites sur film 35 mm par le procédé du banc-titre, reconstituant ainsi le mouvement que Le Prince n'avait pas réussi à voir. Le titre lui a été donné à cette époque, aucun titre proposé par Le Prince n'ayant été retrouvé avec les photographies. Il est parfois considéré, rétrospectivement, comme le premier film à avoir été tourné.

The narrator describes the fall of France, leaving Britain almost defenceless. British forces are vastly outnumbered, but the British people are calm. The narrator explains that this is because in a democracy the people as a whole are involved in the decision to fight. Hitler's masterplan to subjugate Britain is described. Hitler begins by attacking convoys and ports, but fails to destroy them. The RAF are outnumbered "6 - 8 - 10 to one", but knock out far more planes than the Germans do. Bailed out British pilots are also able to return to the air, but German pilots are lost. Unlike the Dutch and Polish airforce Britain does not "make the mistake of bunching its planes on the runways".

The film features many interviews with French communist leaders, students, and sociologists. The Prague Spring of 1968 is featured, with footage of a Fidel Castro speech in which he explains his political support for the Soviet invasion of Czechoslovakia while questioning the legality of the action. Other sections deal with the rise of Salvador Allende, Minamata poisoning in Japan, and the Watergate Scandal in the US. There are many subtle references to cats throughout the film, as well as brief shots of raccoons.
