Film Is Dead. Long Live Film!

2024 | English

“Film Is Dead. Long Live Film!” explores the vanishing world of private film collecting-an obsessive, secretive, often illicit world of basement film vaults, piled-high with forgotten reels, and inhabited by passionate cinephiles devoted to the rescue and preservation of photochemical film. The result is a lively tribute to the private film collector, a celebration of the fetishistic subculture of pre-video movie-love, and a timely reminder of the glories of analog film.
