Oriental Jazz Band. Southeast Asia. Title frame: Oriental Jazz Band. Indo-Chinese Labourers entertain their friends with a native show. Very very cool. Pan across musicians; seated on ground; playing a variety of Asian instruments — a few stringed instruments with bow; guy plucking another primitive string inst. another man tapping a little cup with a stick. CU man playing small flute; and next to him one of the men with the long stick with strings on it — he plays the strings with his fingers; to control the pitch; while rubbing a bow on the strings below — guy wears French cap. GV from farther back; Man with scary nightmare mask standing in centre; musicians seated behind on ground; as are spectators. Another masked actor does a somersault; they turn & face each other again — seems like battle will ensue. Back to CU of musicians; this time the man tapping a string with a stick; and on left; tiny cup percussion instrument Art; culture; creativity; theatre. Entertainment; music. FILM ID: A
