Climbers

About This Movie

Climbers is a 1942 documentary directed by Alan Howland. This film is part of the Gaumont-British Instructional series, offering a glimpse into the natural world.

Climbers was released in a time when short documentaries were gaining traction, yet it remains relatively obscure, which adds to its allure for collectors. There have been limited format releases over the years, often only available in compilations that highlight nature shorts from that era. This scarcity piques interest among collectors, especially those who appreciate the exploratory nature of mid-20th century documentaries. Its unique focus on climbing plants, coupled with the period's distinct narration style, makes it a notable piece for anyone curating a collection of documentary shorts.
