Abstract

During the 1920s the main characters were intense discussions on the use of cinema and the conclusion arrived by intellectuals, teachers, doctors, lawyers and Catholics was that the film should be used for educational purposes. These discussions led authoritarian governments and capitalists in the world to invest in the production of educational films for the purpose of carrying values and ideas to young and children. This article provides a comparison between the educational film institutes of Fascism and the New State in order to find similarities and differences.
