Swinging For Beauty (1939)

Titles read: “SWINGING FOR BEAUTY“. Germany. Various shots of girls in short white dresses swinging hoops about in formation exercises in a field. We hear gentle piano music on the soundtrack. Although commentator does not mention Germany - he just says ’Continental’ - it probably is. This looks like part of a “Strength through Joy“ campaign - typical Nazi (UFA) coverage with many C/Us.
