[Len Moncur Home Movies: Reel 5]

This animated film, titled Storm at the 20th, is a comedy about a group of beleaguered golf ball people, often wearing golf tee hats and with pipe cleaner limbs, who come together to protest against injury from golfers. They decide to take evasive action including using feathers to fly out of the way of golf sticks and a self-destructing do-it-yourself glider kit.

There are details such as the terrible injuries inflicted by golfers and one of the organisers drinking non-stop from what looks like a whiskey bottle.
