  • Beschrijving: The film outlines the state of transportation in post-war Europe and the progress being made in rebuilding and modernizing roads, airports and the rail network. National initiatives and Marshall Plan aid have already accomplished much, but not enough to dismantle man-made barriers. For example, the all-important Stockholm-Rome Express takes longer today than it did before World War I because of cumbersome border controls. To ensure the free and rapid mobility of people and goods that the future demands, we must commit to "one Europe." The film is one of a series of six titled The Changing Face of Europe. Each film deals with a different economic or social issue.
