About this title
A colourised silent film about the massive construction site of the Hämeensilta bridge in Tampere in the years 1928–1929. The film offers a precise and at times a humorous image of the Tampere city centre from nearly a hundred years ago. The four sculptures on the bridge, made by Wäinö Aaltonen, were donated by factory owner Rafael Haarla.
