Bert Haanstra’s Glas is a short 10-minute documentary from 1958 about glass that won an Oscar. It’s a beautiful short that shows the art of glass blowing versus the character-less mechanism of automated glass bottle making machines. There’s no voice over, no narration, just beautiful scenes of glass being made. It’s like porn for manufacturing. Even while you don’t understand what’s going on, it’s lovely to see
