| dbo:abstract |
Housing Problems is a British social documentary film about slum housing conditions produced in 1935 by the Realist Film Unit and John Grierson for the British Commercial Gas Association. It was directed by Arthur Elton and Edgar Anstey. The thirteen-minute 35 mm film features interviews with tenants of the slums. It was one of the first documentaries that centered the voices of the subjects in this way. Whether these interviews were scripted remains a matter of debate. Footage of new model housing developments and cheerful voice-overs emphasizes the role of the British Commercial Gas Association in ending slum housing. (en) |
