Kesällä Tampereella (1940)

Documentary · 8m

"The people of Tampere have always understood what prosperity leads to..." An excellent city documentary filmed by Tampere's own man, Uno Pihlström (1903-1965), in 1940 during the armistice, which is enlivened by an interesting narration. In 1940, Tampere, the Manchester of Finland, had three hundred factories. "Tampere will not rest until Manchester is called the Tampere of England." The film's final ascent is spectacular: in the aerial view "Tampere opens up, large, handsome, energetic."
