Did you know that videos start deteriorating after 30 years?
The New Black Film Collective and London’s Screen Archives present an evening of films from the 1970s-2000s filmed in Tower Hamlets on the themes of love, community, protest and racism.
The event will also explore why it is important to protect and preserve your own personal collections. Tower Hamlets Local History Library & Archives and London's Screen Archives will host a workshop on how to care for your documents, photos and films (digital, VHS, super 8mm etc), including a chance to get hands-on with old film formats.
