Some ideas on how to use this video from a teacher:

//"This is the fifth video of a mystery story which I found at Vimeo// [|//http://www.vimeo.com/12475071//]//. I chose it because I think mystery holds everyone’s attention, and I could use it to practice speaking and the use of past perfect tense. // //I would start working with some key vocabulary, and then I would have half of the class see the video without audio, while the other half turns around and answers a vocabulary worksheet. // //I would have the other half hear the video without the picture, while the other half turns headphones off and answers the vocabulary worksheet. // // I would then pair up the students from each half of the class to talk about the situations and characters. //

//After pair discussion I would have the whole class talking about the video, writing notes on the board. I would also ask students to tell me what they think happened before and to predict what will happen next. //

//Students would then work again in pairs to write a short description of the story, inserting two or three sentences in past perfect tense." //
