In fifteen minutes, LIGHT cleverly shows the history of light: from the beginnings of time to Thomas Edison's invention of the incandescent light bulb, and the development of the machinery needed for its mass production by Corning Glass Works. The film also explores other sources of illumination -- fire, candles, oil, kerosene, and gas -- all rapidly displaced by Edison's brilliant application of distribution systems for electricity and power.
