A film was released in 1977 called 'ABBA - The Movie', set during the band's tour of Australia that year. It was about a luckless music journalist called Ashley who was ordered by his editor to get an interview with the group, but kept on failing and enduring bad luck. In the end, just about when all seems lost and he's faced with getting the sack, he by sheer coincidence meets the band in an elevator and is able to get his long-awaited and treasured interview after all. The fictional parts of the film were interspursed with real live coverage of their performances at venues in Australia.
Some people may have taken audio cine-film of the group at one or more of their concerts, which would have been technically illegal- since the band split up in 1982 most such filming is more likely to have been done by this medium than by video camera, as even although video cameras did exist then, they were large and cumbersome and would have been spotted by admissions staff upon entry, and the user prevented from taking it in. I regret that I personally do not possess such bootleg coverage. You could, however, try looking it up on Facebook or other social media to see if anybody has posted any footage that they took in the late '70s / early '80s.
