Home Movie: 001500 (silent)

Description: An African American family travels through Germany, Austria, and San Marino via tourbus, river cruises, railways and ferries. Many views of the Alps, castles, and medieval architecture. In one scene, members of a multigenerational tour group (including the filmmaker's children) stop to play on a snowbank, climbing, sliding, and throwing snowballs in their street clothes and in one case a bikini.
