Synopsis

This is an extraordinary novelty, telling the story of love, courtship and marriage, simply through the actions of the hands and feet, without displaying the features. Just imagine, if you can, the actions of the hands and feet alone thoroughly and perfectly telling the story of a young couple making love, becoming engaged, going through the "lovey-dovey" period of courtship, getting married, keeping house, and the demonstration of that ecstatic bliss of their first born to bless the little home and fill their lives with the wellspring of future hope and ambition.
