Lausanne, défilé du 8ème bataillon (1896)

Here's another actuality film from the Lumiere Brothers where the title pretty much tells you what you're looking at. The camera is placed behind a street where we see the 8th Batallion traveling down the street with a few onlookers standing by watching. If you're unfamiliar with actuality movies then you'll soon realize that they feature no plots or anything like that. They basically just capture a moment in time and that's what makes them so interesting to me. The film's certainly didn't change history but it's still fascinating to look at them and just see something that actually happened so long ago.
