CITY OF GOLD

Oscar® Nominee, Best Short Subject (Live Action), 1957

This classic short film from Pierre Berton depicts the Klondike gold rush at its peak, when would-be prospectors struggled through harsh conditions to reach the fabled gold fields over 3000 km north of civilization. Using a collection of still photographs, the film juxtaposes the Dawson City at the height of the gold rush with its bustling taverns and dance halls with the more tranquil Dawson City of the present.

Directed by Wolf Koenig & Colin Low - 1957
