The Thirties in Colour - Adventures in the Americas - Mexico Part 5
Four-part series using rare, private and commercial colour film and photographs to give poignant and surprising insights into the 1930s. This edition examines American industrialist Harry Wright's extraordinary colour films of Africa and Central America, including his so-called Ethnographic Series of Unknown Mexican Indians, a unique visual record of the lives and customs of indigenous peoples living in the remote rural regions of Mexico.

This isn't the '30s; more like the early '50s--cars, hair styles all post WWII

A remarkable vision from industrialist Harry Wright.
Not a colonialist point of view, neither a naive, just a man of his time.
Great !
