Weilburger Festzug

Deutschland 19?? Amateurfilm

Summary

Julius Neubronner (1852-1932), a chemist and inventor from Kronberg was one of the first people to film in the Rhine-Main region. In 1903 he acquired his first film camera, an Ernemann "Kino" for 17.5mm film with center perforation. With his camera Neubronner recorded historical events as well as the everyday life of his family. Furthermore, he also shot short sketches performed by himself and his family on a stage set-up in the garden of their home. "Weilburg Parade" shows a large crowd watching a parade. The participants wear historical costumes, which remind of different time periods like the Middle Ages and the age of knights or the baroque. Thematically decorated carriages are pulled by horses.
