This film shows Laura Malcolmson and a companion touring around various locations in the central mainland, possibly filmed in 1971. Includes: Scalloway, Lunna Kirk and House, Kergord House, and the Trondra Bridge under construction.


Donated by the Kemp and Malcolmson families (Shetland).


I love that you can see the people in this film talking to the person behind the camera - reminding us that the people making films and featuring in them are often friends and family spending time together and having fun for themselves, rather than future "audiences".
