Romania interbelica in jurnalele de stiri British Pathé

British Pathé este una dintre cele mai vechi companii de media din lume. Isi are inceputurile in Parisul anilor 1890, cand Charles Pathé era unul din pionierii filmului.
Stabilita la Londra la inceputul secolului XX, dupa primul razboi mondial compania va produce jurnale de actualitati care se difuzau in cinematografe.
Materialele de mai jos au ca subiect Romania interbelica, destul de putin tratata in afara subiectelor legate de agenda casei regale.
