What happens

Leaving Victoria Station è un cortometraggio muto del 1901. Il nome del regista non viene riportato nei credit del film ma vi appare quello del produttore Cecil M. Hepworth come direttore della fotografia. Il film documenta alcune scene del funerale della regina Vittoria celebrati a Londra il 2 febbraio 1901. Gran parte delle cerimonie che accompagnarono l'evento furono riprese da Hepworth in una serie di brevi cortometraggi che coprono la giornata. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
