THE PROTECTED SCHOOL
Department of Civil Defense, 1965, 5 min, B&W
Our community has a lovely new school. And the decontamination showers
are built right in!
BOMB THREAT - PLAN, DON'T PANIC
1971, 15 min, Color
Police dept. community relations film. Sure, mad bombers are everywhere these days, so you'd better make a plan.
EN FACE
Filmow Oswiatowych, Lodz, Poland, 1960's, 7 min, B&W
Soviet-era Polish psychedelic collage animation of overlaid clip art images with mid century art music. If anyone can explain how this was supposed to build socialism, I'll buy them a beer.
(Intermission)HOW TO CATCH A COLD
Disney, 1951, 11 min, Color
Seeng this film as a child convinced me that germs were everywhere and attempts to avoid them were nearly futile.
MONSTRUOS DEL ESPACIO
FujiTV,1966, 28 min, B&W
Episode of a Japanese rubber-suit monster serial dubbed into Spanish. Watch out for those bits of fluff!
