DESCRIPTION
"Around the World in Sports and Games" is a film presented by Virginia Road School in Los Angeles, California, exploring different sports and games as they are practiced globally but performed by school children in the United States. Despite its title suggesting a diverse international scope, the film primarily features activities from just two countries: Japan and Germany. The demonstration involves Anglo-Saxon children dressed in cultural attire, playing what appear to be typical backyard games in a setting that resembles a makeshift backyard rather than an authentic cultural environment.
