Gems From the Attic: a 1933 documentary




"Where shall we look for yesterday?"
Not in history books, if you ask me.

Films may be much better an option.

If you like  documentaries like the 1927 masterpiece, Berlin, the Symphony of a Metropolis, or Vertov's Man with a Movie Camera (1929), or the incomparable Joris Ivens - or any documentary about cities and life decades ago - chances are you will love this gem.
