Not seeing a lot of awareness out there about the fact that India's Films Division, Directorate of Film Festivals, National Film Archive, and Children’s Film Society are being merged with the NFDC and having their offices closed next month. Very bad news for film.

After realising he hadn’t yet signed the petition to save the @CinemaMuseum Harold was reminded by his good friends to sign it there and then.

Don’t be like Harold. Sign it NOW before it’s too late: https://t.co/ktqnawFwOb

A fire at the Brazilian Cinemateque last night in São Paulo. 4 tons of materials, 2K prints lost. After the fire at the National Museum and multiple calls 4help from the film community(20 days ago I called it out in Cannes), nothing done. It doesn’t even feel like an accident.
