Henry Glassie: Field Work
This stunning, meditative documentary about folkloric art is an enthralling portrait of people practising traditional crafts, such as pottery and woodworking. Sound boring? It’s anything but. Take the American anthropologist Henry Glassie, for example, who has studied different folk cultures in this way for the past fifty years. Glassie invites you to join him on a journey around the world to observe folk art and to discover what it can teach us.
