Heerlen

Director: Willy Mullens | Production Country: The Netherlands | Year: 1922 | Production Company: Haghe Film | FLM27436 | Film from the collection of EYE (Amsterdam) - www.eyefilm.nl...
As the beginning of this documentary reports, the population of Heerlen has tripled over the past decade due to the arrival of the mining industry. The film continues with a panoramic shot of Heerlen and its surroundings: we see several coal mines in rural South Limburg.
Heerlen is portrayed as a bustling, dynamic city where modern life is making a quick ascent. Yet its traditional character still remains: the Roman church, a funeral procession, and picturesque vistas in the old centre. The scenic countryside of South Limburg is a prominent feature.
