A comedy film about three friends serving in the Australian Light Horse during the Palestine Campaign of World War I, Fellers stars Arthur Tauchert, best known for his lead role in The Sentimental Bloke (1919).
The narrative sees each of the men enlist in the war for different reasons. One joins for excitement; 'another because he thought he killed a man in a fight over a girl; the third because he thought the girl he loved was in love with another. The second man is killed laying a pipe to supply the army with water. To save the girl back home from heartbreak (her father has recently died), the third man swaps identification tags with the dead man, and has himself reported as dead. He then finds out that the girl loves him. After the war, the complications are resolved and the third man is reunited with the girl' (Pike and Cooper, Australian Film 1900-1977).
Initially made as a silent film, Fellers had sound (including a song) synchronised with the final reel.
