Synopsis

Rediscovered and restored from 800 rolls of early film found in a shop's basement, this black and white documentary collection from the start of the last century is a fascinating glimpse into everyday life in Edwardian Britain. Originally made by filmmaking pair Mitchell and Kenyon for screening in town halls and village fairs, locals paid to see their families and neighbours on screen playing football, leaving work for the day at the factory and enjoying annual holidays. Focusing on major themes such as sport and Industry, but revealing how little people have changed in essence, watching this is like stepping back in time.

What our educators say

"It really is a chance for us to open children's minds to the power of film not just as a vehicle for entertainment but also as a way in to understanding their own world and the worlds of people whose lives are very different."

- Marlon Perkins, Teacher, Whitstable and Seasalter Endowed CofE Junior School, Kent
