NWFA - North West Film Archive

As I was waiting for the WCML  to get back to me I looked at some of the different films on the Special Collections website by the NWFA. 
I had lots of ideas as they are split into eight different genres of Sport, Entertainment, Transport, Culture, Rural, Urban, Working Life and Youth. 
Initially I thought I could pick one of these films and do some work inspired by multiple videos inside the genre but then I thought that all of these subjects contribute something important to working-class life and culture.
