About

Between 1920 and 1978 Glasgow Corporation sponsored over 50 ?lms. From the earliest, Glasgow's Housing Problem and its Solution, commissioned from Pathé in 1922 to the last Glasgow's Progress, whose ?nal images were taken by Ogam Films in 1978, they provide a remarkable view of the life, times and people of an ever-changing city.

Now The Lighthouse offers a rare chance to see some of these seminal works documenting 50 years of Glasgow, its people, industries, power, decline, demolition and re-building, including Sadness and Gladness (1928) Glasgow 1980 (1971) and If Only we had the Space (1974).
