In 1949, junior social studies students were watching A Loaf of Bread, a short documentary from our Film Australia Collection that demystified the art of breadmaking. In this clip, a factory worker submerges his arms up to his elbows in dough to prepare it for baking.
The film covers every step from a loaf's humble start as flour to its final delivery. Broadcaster Wilfrid Thomas delivers a matter-of-fact narration of wheat harvesting, flour milling and bread-making processes, explaining the technical procedures in a fashion that younger audiences would understand.
