How does media become lost? 🎬

Not all works of culture are archived and preserved forever. Many cherished films, TV shows, or others bits of media become lost, though sometimes they have a second life thanks to the efforts of online enthusiasts.

For this year’s World Day for Audiovisual Heritage, we’ve dug into unique Russian lost media: from classic literature to Soviet animation to modern-day sitcoms.
