[Sportifs à Font Romeu]

A film showing portraits of various athletic groups, some wearing the uniforms of the French team in training in Font Romeu. After a short shot through the window of the little yellow train, we see skiing, throwing of weights, running, weight lifting etc., however we also see them heckling eachother, laughing and enjoying the sun on the terrace of a cafe (the Hermitage). The swim team builds an igloo, and then are seen in front the bar "La Poule au Pot" to start downhill skiing. At the end of the film we follow the team for a quick ride to Andorre la Veille by bus, and we witness the departure of the little yellow train from the station at Font Romeu - Odeillo Via.
