MODULUS STUDIOS

JUST BACK FROM HIFF!

And STILL buzzing from the debut of HOMEGROWN at Honolulu Intl. Film Fest! I met incredible people, watched amazing films and had many thought-provoking conversations.

Modulus Studio was proud to have consulted on and helped prep the 8 short docs for the PBS series HOMEGROWN: A PART OF, A PART FROM.

If you appreciate 'film', as a medium that helped shape post-war modern American culture, then you are going to love Peter Flynn's FILM IS DEAD. LONG LIVE FILM!, where you'll meet these hilarious, dogmatic, adorable, daring and sometimes boorish, suburban packrats who fell in love with film at an early age and just kept going.

The doc profiles Eric Grayson and his 20+ year project KING OF THE KONGO, who are also appearing at the Somerville on Sunday: https://www.somervilletheatre.com/production/king-of-the-kongo/

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. The result is a lively and loving 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.

“Spectacular… a massive treat for cinephiles. A wave of nostalgia and wonder is felt in every scene.” – Film Threat

"Funny and observant… immensely entertaining!” – The Independent
