Thanks so much for posting this wonderful film, Sancti.     I've been doing some research on where my father and his parents came from and this film has answered so many questions.   Such a serendipitous find!       There I was, Googling frantically and finding very little, and just checked Rootschat on the off chance.    Absolutely fantastic.

This film brings back so many memories of living in Reidvale Street in the 1950s.
