Overview

Short but adorably cute family film, a lovely record of a typical domestic setting at Christmastime. As they often do at this time of year, this home movie concentrates in the main on the youngest member of the family, a young boy, who is thoroughly absorbed with playing with the new toys he has been gifted. Home movie maker Mr Geck recorded in and around Great Yarmouth and the Caister area in addition to capturing scenes of family life at home in North Walsham.
