Made by The National Film Board 1954. Directed by Bern Gandy, Joan Boundy, Hugh Alexander. Adelaide, capital of South Australia, a delightful city set against a background of hills, owes a lot to its original plan by Colonel Light and today displays the beauty of its wide streets and impressive public buildings. Also features landscape painter Hans Heysen.
