The films were originally intended as cultural propaganda to counteract negative propaganda from Nazi Germany during World War II. The films are now available for viewing and downloading. The project is a collaboration between the British Council, the BFI National Film Archive, and Google. via MetaFilter EDW Lynch | May 14, 2012 at 3:16 pm | Categories: Documentary, Film & Video, History, United Kingdom, War | URL: http://wp.me/p4t6s-FlL Unsubscribe or change your email settings at Manage Subscriptions.
