The Dirigible "Homeland" Blimp (1907) | Air Travel In The Early 20th Century

THE DIRIGIBLE "HOMELAND" BALLOON (French title: Le Ballon dirigeable Le Patrie) is a short silent French film directed by Alice Guy-Blaché. A one-minute documentary of the dirigible coming out of the hangar and flying while on-lookers watch. Alice Guy-Blaché was a French trailblazing film director. She was one of the first filmmakers (man or woman) to make a narrative fiction film, as well as the first woman to direct a film. She began her career in the film industry at the age of 21, working as a secretary for the Gaumont Film Company in France. From 1896 to 1906, she was probably the only female filmmaker in the world. She went on to direct and produce hundreds of films over the course of her career. Some that were one minute long, some were feature films. Unfortunately, a lot of them have been lost. She was the artistic director and a co-founder of Solax Studios. She was a major influence on other male directors, but has since been largely forgotten. Happy Women's History Month! This film is in the public domain meaning it has been identified as being free of known restrictions under copyright law, including all related and neighboring rights. You can copy, modify, distribute and perform the work, even for commercial purposes, all without asking permission. Corporations lobbied Congress to get U.S. copyright laws extended by 20 years, twice! Because of that, it allows published works to be under copyright for almost a century and corporations to squeeze every last ounce of profit from them even long after the profitability has past. It keeps people from enjoying art, which is the purpose of art. #femalefilmmakers #womenfilmmakers #AliceGuyBlaché #publicdomainfilms #publicdomainmovies
