NYU 1940 13min sd $75, rent $4 330.973 sh-c-ad-forum Guide Produced by the Educational Film Institute of New York University in cooperation with the University of Kentucky Designed to illustrate the unsatisfactory relationship between education and the local necessities of life which characterize American education in many parts of this country Depicts a farm family in the rural south, inadequately housed and clothed, living on land that is poor, and existing on a diet of pork, pork sausage and pork gravy. The oneroom school which the children attend is crude and meagerly furnished. The books used do not relate to the needs of the community. But the school is preparing to change Its program of study so that the children can learn some of the facts of soil and food which they so badly need to know. The adults have managed to get along somehow, but every year the land is poorer, the conditions worse. The children must be taught ways to enrich the impoverished soil to improve their diet and health. There is an interesting use of folk music as running commentary for the film Itself "This film presents a frank analysis of a backward mountain community to the accompaniment of melodious native songs. Used with a proper discussion leader, the film offers challenging material for creative thought." Collaborator OF THIS WE ARE PROUD.
