Conquest of Light (1975): Cast

The film explores the mesmerising craftsmanship behind Waterford’s clear crystal glass, following each stage—from the furnace’s searing heat, through blowing, shaping, cutting, honing, filling, to the final polish. It celebrates the artistry of Waterford Glass makers and was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Live‑Action Short in 1976.
