Film is Dead. Long Live Film!

Celebrate the Portland debut of the NYBACK 16mm archive with a special screening of the new documentary FILM IS DEAD, LONG LIVE FILM (2024), which explores the world of film collectors and their contribution to film preservation. Features film collectors rescuing and preserving obscure and forgotten films from basement vaults, releasing and restoring titles before analog film disappears, and blurring lines between piracy and preservation.

Presented by FRESH PRODUCE. Curated and hosted by film archivist Greg Hamilton.
