Film Is Dead. Long Live Film!

A must-see for cinephiles.  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, inhabited by passionate cinephiles devoted to the rescue and preservation of photochemical film.

FILM IS DEAD. LONG LIVE FILM! 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.

A Q&A follows the film featuring the director Peter Flynn, film restorer Robert Harris and former NY Times film critic Janet Maslin.
