Originally produced in 1996.
Narrator: Judd Hirsch.
Part futuristic exhibition, part glittery strip mall, the 1965 New York World's Fair was planned amid the optimism of the late 1950s, but the Fair's two year run often mirrored the chaos of the 1960s. This film, set to a historical backdrop of world events, draws on the memories of fairgoers who found hope for the future in an understanding of other cultures presented at the Fair.
DVD; Dolby Digital.
