Fishermen pull a large fishing net in and out of the sea with horses from the beach of the North sea. The catch is put into baskets and is taken away by horse and cart. In the shop the shrimps are sold. At home the children eat the shrimp.

During World War II the newsreels by film producers Polygoon and Profilti were controlled by the German occupiers. Polygoon and Profilti had to work together with the German film rental office Tobis. From January 1, 1941 the newsreels were therefore called Tobis News. Until the fall of 1944 newsreels under this name were produced alternately by Polygoon and Profilti.
