Overview

One of the Royal Horticultural Society's properties, Wisley Gardens is the setting for a London family’s summertime day out. In addition to the stunning, vibrant array of the flowerbeds and show gardens, the filmmaker also captures the youthful energy of the two young siblings as they amuse themselves on the lawns and the play area. The colour film stock lends a zestful luminance to every shot.
