Video: Life In Australia: Cairns in the 1960′s

Here’s another great film from Film Australia about life in Cairns Australia in the 1960′s.

From the description:

A small city in the tropical north of Queensland, Cairns boasts a life that is leisurely and comfortable. The tempo quickens, however, at cane-cutting time when the sugar is harvested, and in winter when tourists come north to escape the cold. Made by The Commonwealth Film Unit 1964.
