Description:

This film uses firsthand stories from Missourians who attended the 1904 St. Louis World's Fair, alongside interviews with historians, historic film footage, and photographs, to explore the fair's place within American society at the dawn of the 20th century. It examines American civilization at that time, how history was presented, the concept of authenticity, ideas about modernity, fashion and body language, the power of oral history and childhood recollections, the experience of world's fairs, and how people received information through visuals, words, and exhibits.
