Het 25-jarig regeeringsjubileum van H.M. koningin Wilhelmina

Summary

Documentary on the occasion of Queen Wilhelmina’s 25th anniversary of rule.

This anniversary film, compiled by Haghe Film, consists mainly of footage that Willy Mullens had shot of the royal family in previous years. The film includes e.g. footage of the solidarity demonstration that took place on the Malieveld in The Hague in November of 1918. It also includes excerpts from Mullens' Leger- en vlootfilm (1917).

The film opens with portraits – paintings and busts – of the Queen’s ancestors. These are followed by a rather curious animation sequence in which the birth of Wilhelmina is announced. It also shows photographs of Wilhelmina's first reigning years. Relevant film footage from that period was no longer available.
