Static composition. A stage: Four male singers and one female singer dressed in officer uniforms (?) [frame scan 1]. Trees and palm trees in the background. To the right a group of Japanese people, to the left a small group of European women. The singers exit, the Japanese people and the European woman wave at them [frame scan 2].

Possibly an Edison "Talking Kinetophone" subject -- a number were deposited with the Library of Congress and they had brass tags on the cans that always began with a "E" and then a number.

'Tonbild' (Lit: 'Sound Picture' - early, experimental sound film) adapted from "Madame Butterfly"?
