From the richest news archives in the world comes the landmark production Dawn of the Eye, a six hour video documentary series capturing the 100 year history of the visual news form. From the Lumière brothers' 1896 newsreel of the coronation of Czar Nicholas II to the satellite age, this archival video encyclopedia is the story of the news at war, the invention of television news, and the constant conflict it had with the governments and powers that tried to control and manipulate it. It's the story of the most powerful information medium since the written word.
