What happens

Sunrise is a 1926 Australian silent film co-directed by Raymond Longford, who took over during filming. It was the second film from Australasian Films following their recommencement of production, after Painted Daughters. (The company planned to make twelve. It did not make this many ultimately.) It is considered a lost film. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
