Những thước phim màu quý giá về Việt Nam năm 1945.flv
Một đoạn phim màu hiếm có về Việt Nam năm 1945. Đoạn phim được nhà làm phim người Hà Lan Michael Rogge đăng tải trên tài khoản cá nhân của mình

Trong đoạn phim dài trên 8 phút có tiêu đề "Khám phá vùng phụ cận Sài Gòn vào năm 1945" (Exploring the surroundings of Saigon in 1945), Michael Rogge chú thích: "Một chuyến bằng xe gắn máy ngay sau cuộc chiến tranh Thái Bình Dương năm 1945 tới thành phố Đà Lạt, một thành phố nằm trên vùng cao nguyên và kinh thành Huế".

Khi xem đoạn phim sẽ không khỏi ngỡ ngàng trước hình ảnh thác nước tuyệt đẹp ở Đà Lạt, cảnh đàn hươu hoang dã sống ngay gần các xóm làng, những người nông dân cần mẫn trên cánh đồng lúa hay kinh thành Huế cổ kính với những cảnh sinh hoạt độc đáo...
