Description A film showing a group of boys playing in the snow and throwing snowballs. The film was made by Bamforth and Company, Holmfirth.
The film begins with a group of boys running and sliding on the snow, and throwing snowballs. After a short while one large boy (man?), with a large overcoat on, falls over and gets bombarded with snowballs by the others. At first he tries to protect himself from the snowballs with his arms, sits up and then puts his arms outstretched. A man arrives and starts brushing snow off the victim and trying to chase away the boys, who continue their snowball bombardment anyway.
