The Harbour
19539 minFilm: Documentary
Direction: Ernest Kirkpatrick

Script: William Stephenson
Produced by the National Film Board of Canada in cooperation with Shelly Films.
Halifax, in winter as in summer, plays host to ships from all parts of the world--freighters, tankers, and luxury liners. To keep the procession moving is a tremendous job requiring modern facilities, scientific aids, and constant direction by the harbourmaster. The coordination required is shown with the piloting and berthing of a Swedish freighter.
