INTERNATIONAL FESTIVAL OF MUSIC AND DRAMA

2nd INTERNATIONAL FESTIVAL OF DOCUMENTARY FILMS
EDINBURGH, AUGUST 22 to SEPTEMBER 12, 1948
World-wide interest was aroused by the first International Festival of Documentary Films, which included the premieres of many important feature productions. During one week's performances over seventy-five films from eighteen countries were shown to an international audience totalling many thousands.
This year the performances will be spread over three weeks and will be so arranged that any one spending even a single week at the Festival will be able to see most of the films presented.
As before, the organizers have received enthusiastic support from the Governments and film organizations of many countries and, at this second Festival, numerous entries have been promised from sources not represented on the previous occasion.
Once again the Festival will present a unique opportunity of seeing the latest and most outstanding documentaries from all over the world. There will be seven major performances, at each of which a new feature documentary will be shown, together with short films in every style. Most of these films will have their first screening in this country, and some will have their world premiere at the Festival.
Many notable film personalities are expected to attend and some production companies are making arrangements to release members of their staffs during the period of the Festival.
