Descriptive summary

Soldiers rush into the room, push themselves to a narrow door. A lemur on a gun on screen, eats the bread in a soldier's hand. A soldier speaks to the camera. Filmed concert. A soldier plays the piano, another plays violin on the front. The cinema screen is hung out under a bridge. A sailor points the posted program. A brass band plays. The poilus see the showing, the glance raised, they applaud. (PUBLIC). Officers in the forefront on the barges, behind the soldiers. On the bridge, projector in a lorry. War barges in the channel.
