Some of the pioneering films made in Pembrokeshire by William Haggar are featured in the new National Screen and Sound Archive of Wales at the National Library of Wales at Aberystwyth.
Haggar, who had a base in Pembroke, was a world-renowned pre-World War One film maker and his surviving shorts which were distributed throughout Europe and the USA, include The Life of Charles Peace, about the murders which shocked the country. The archive also includes key images from Welsh history, one a home movie of Lloyd Georges visit to Germany when he met Hitler in 1936, another the marathon silent film feature The Life Story of David Lloyd George, (1918).
