Watch free video Modern History: Algiers in the 1930s
Animation description:
This clip is an extract from the amateur film "European Trip". Some young Americans visit Europe, probably in 1936, and pass Algiers on their way to Italy. Their impressions of Algiers are described in the title cards:
- Algiers, city of contrasts! The modern French section.
- We saw some strange sights in the old Arabic quarters.
