This 1940s home movie captures a San Francisco family’s wartime experience in Brisbane, possibly during a relocation or visit amid WWII. Likely shot in Kodachrome or black-and-white, it might show Brisbane’s riverfront, King George Square, or American servicemen mingling, with family scenes—kids playing, parents on a verandah—set against a backdrop of rationing or air-raid drills. Shaky and silent, it blends San Francisco roots with Australia’s wartime vibe, offering a personal cross-Pacific snapshot.
