It is midsummer in Oslo. There is intense activity on pier 1 just before the fjord boat is about to depart. The pier is crowded with people: families going to the countryside and fathers staying behind at home. Mrs. Rigmor Sande and her two children, Vesleper and Titten, are already on board and standing by the railing. Dad Per Sande, the soon-to-be grass cutter, is frantically searching for the family's suitcase, which has gone astray. The moorings are released and the boat is ready to depart. "You can leave your husband behind, but not your suitcase," exclaims the lively 21-year-old Ellen Stenersen. She and Per are left standing on the pier. They are old acquaintances and neighbors in the country. Per doesn't think being a grasshopper is so bad. He and his friend Stoffer throw themselves into the temptations of Oslo. The men are also accompanied by Ellen. Per and Ellen develop warm feelings for each other.
A film about Oslo's parks. We visit Studenterlunden, Stensparken, Slottsparken, Frognerparken with Vigeland's children's ferry, St. Hanshaugen and Botanisk Hage on Tøyen. We see part of the new given to give Oslo a facelift: the "groundbreaking areas" in Iladalen and Torshov, with sheep projects, concerts and open-air theater for children. // Oslofilm was a series of public information films about life in and around Oslo, produced between 1940 and 1980. Funded by the state, the films offer valuable insight into postwar Norwegian society. A wide range of Norwegian filmmakers contributed to the productions, resulting in a rich variety of styles and expressions. Several of the films also possess notable cinematic qualities, standing out as more than just informational material. The Oslofilms represent a unique and important chapter in Norwegian film history.
The Swedish blacksmith Jörund, who left Sweden innocently suspected of murder, arrives at a Norwegian farm and falls in love with the farmer Marja.
The wealthy farmer sits safely on his ancestral farm, and the hard-working tenant farmer lives on the hill below. The horse dealer at the coach station will trick the innocent farmer, who is not so innocent after all, with cunning tricks. The mischievous boy who bullies the servants when his mother and father are away, the kind-hearted little boy who helps his grandfather when no one else will listen to the old man, the village eccentric who never tires of recounting his youthful adventures in the city, the worn-out wife who will not send her cow to the show at any price.
