This is another of the many documentary shorts made by the Lumiere Brothers. It's a simple but popular scene from early cinema of girls feeding poultry and ducks. The reason I say popular is because poultry-yard scenes of people feeding birds was extremely popular back in the day. The Edison Company remade this film as a 20 second effort called "Feeding the Doves" but I think I prefer this one to that despite the fact it's pretty bland and not much happens onscreen. Maybe, as another reviewer has pointed out, this could've worked better as a photograph instead. That said, it is an extremely well-photographed and pleasant little scene which is still interesting to watch even today. And, in the end, you can't criticize this short because it wasn't telling a story. Just two kids doing their job, and Lumiere was there to document it. It is a bland subject but the least it can do is show us this moment in time, and that's what it does.
