Physical fitness (Captioned) | Al Sens | ACMI collection | ACMI: Your museum of screen culture

Episode of Series “Fun to Be Fit Series”.
Animation and the singing of light hearted lyrics contrasts the lack of physical activity since machinery has become such a large part of modern life, against the amount of physical activity that was necessary before the event of such machinery. “We have a different style. But we don’t get enough exercise” are part of the lyrics which introduce this program. However, the video ends on a positive and hopeful note, as mankind is re-educated in the improvements possible to ensure health, happiness and quality of life by increasing daily physical activities.
