A NEW WAY TO LOOK AT WORLD WAR 2

World War ll has usually been seen in black and white, but our endless research has unearthed an abundance of superb color film that shows what it really looked like to those who were there.
The Author presents mainly WW2 recently declassified and other previously unavailable material. Weapons that were produced in such small numbers that they were known only to a few people or that were previously under security restrictions appear here for the first time. This Collection is also composed by videos showing many of the less known types of guns and vehicles used in WW2: suppressed weapons, secret weapons and numerous other weapons, including a wide range of different war planes.
Gun-camera footage, bombings and air-war are greatly represented, as well as naval and submarine warfare.
In this outstanding and unique Collection every single theatre of war is covered and footage captured to the enemy by the Allies is also listed, amateur films included.
Unknown World War 2 in Color is a stunning and vivid new account of the epic conflict.

In the Collection are also available 3 added color video sections about the last pre-war years, the immediate post-war and curiosities plus propaganda footage from various home fronts.

'Thanks to today's technology, travelling in Time is possible! Kids already know how to travel toward distant (hypothetical) future sceneries using many different videogames. I'm just trying to let them know that travelling into the past (the real past, nothing hypothetical anymore...) is definitely better! It always teaches you something. It can be just a cultural experience, an introspective trip or a merely emotional one.
Travelling into the past is not like watching distractly a documentary, or an historical movie. It can be a total immersion into the feelings and the emotions of the long gone guy that was behind the movie camera. He comes back to life everytime you click, just to trigger your trip... and you can learn more about war and human nature, life and death, horror and beauty from this experience than partecipating in hundreds of hours of history class.
I believe that XXth Century rare and less known historical multimedial digital documents will become more and more a real drug for masses of intellectuals and sociology buffs in the future...'
