On The Italian Front (1914-1919)

Seems to be a montage of scenes from the Italian front. Opens with shot of Italian soldiers carrying a wounded soldier on stretcher up mountain to a shelter with pulleys and cables (in foreground). Part of story in which stretchers are placed in frames hooked to the cables; and moved down mountain like on a ski-lift. Next shot of troops marching down street towards camera; with a soldier in front riding a bicycle. Then; shot of troops coming round a hill. Very brief shot of bomb exploding. Soldiers resting and relaxing on mountainside - standing and sitting - rocky hills in background. Same; with men reclining on ground. FILM ID: A VIDEO FROM BRITISH PATHÉ.
