1978 American documentary
When the World was Wide is a 1978 American documentary film that presents pioneering travelogue footage of exotic and far-flung locales taken between 1905 and 1927. It samples archival footage reaching back to "the last days of the Manchu Dynasty" in China and includes the first footage taken in Japan (1909) and Tibet (1919) and the first ever of a Dalai Lama.
