Village Without Words - 1950 Part 1

Description

Told only with images and music, this is the story of the revival of an Italian village where life had ground to a halt. All it takes is raw material supplied by the Marshall Plan to the local glove factory. The townspeople have work again, and an income. The baker bakes again, the shoemaker cobbles, and even the carousel on the town square is heard once more as it revolves for the children's pleasure.
