Fujisawa 16mm Audiovisual Volunteers Preserve Film Experience for Future Generations
藤沢16ミリ視聴覚ボランティアの会 フィルム映像の味わい、後世に 子どもに伝える感動の共有
Volunteers in Fujisawa continue screening 16mm film to share the sensory experience of film projection with children and preserve it for the future.
A group called Fujisawa 16mm Audiovisual Volunteers intentionally continues running 16mm film projectors, valuing the tactile sounds and visual qualities that differ from smartphone video. They hold screenings and hands-on events aimed at children to convey the excitement and communal feeling of seeing film projected. The volunteers say preserving these screenings helps transmit the medium’s unique aesthetic and the emotional impact of shared film-watching to future generations.
