LOOK AT LIFE VOLUME SIX : WORLD AFFAIRS DVD

This regular series of short documentary films was produced in the 1960s by the Special Features Division of the Rank Organisation to screen in their Odeon and Gaumont cinemas - replacing the circuit's Universal News, now rendered largely irrelevant with the advent of television news broadcasts. Marvellously concise and beautifully shot, these colour featurettes, numbering over 500 in total, presented cinemagoers with varied aspects of modern British life.

Transferred from the original film elements, this volume presents films encompassing World Affairs of every shape and form - from a visit behind the Iron Curtain to the fun and sun of Copacabana beach, from the plight of Tibetan refugees to the building of Africa's Kariba Dam.
