Documentary made in 1934 :Song of Ceylon.

From: Dr J B Peiris




Song of Ceylon (1934)Ever heard of "Song of Ceylon"? That's the 40 minute b/w film  made in 1934 to advertise tea.

The film was prize winning.

Lionel Wendt did the narration,
reading excerpts of Knox over the visuals.

The camera work is quite stunning.
something that is quite a unique piece of history.
