"London in the 1930s is the heart of the British Empire and a city of paradox, where chronic poverty and sophisticated luxury dwell side by side. After the war, rationing is still in place, the nation is almost broke, but the 1950s eventually see London back on its feet, ready to embrace a new era. Economic boom and immigration create endless variety and ceaseless change in a cultural revolution during the 1960s, making London a swinging, modern city. Through the eyes of the nation's capital, rare archive films tell the stories of these turbulent and fascinating decades in British history."--Container.
