The Women’s Film Preservation Fund of New York Women in Film & Television has helped to restore and preserve over 100 films in which women had a key creative role. Among these is Barbara Kopple’s Oscar-winning Harlan County USA, showing in the Revivals section at this year’s NYFF. The result of this preservation project was a new 16mm print, which was used for exhibition. But what’s next? There are few 16mm exhibition venues available today. However, we know that film is the most stable of all available moving image media. How does this affect the work of the preservationist? Should 16mm prints continue to be made? The conversation will also address the larger issue of the need for film preservation and the work of the WFPF. Panelists will include preservation experts Balazs Nyari (Cineric), Katie Trainor (Film Collections Manager, MoMA), Ann Deborah Levy (Filmmaker/Co-Chair of the WFPF) and Susan Lazarus (Producer/Post Production Supervisor, Paterson, WFPF), moderated by Marian Mason (Film Curator, Art Basel).
