Synopsis
In the late 90s, the concept of orphan films started to be used as a way to draw attention on the fate, conservation, and accessibility of a series of cinematographic records that came from diverse origins. These materials include every kind of films that was produced and screened outside of the commercial circuits: amateur, educational, ethnographic, institutional, government propaganda-intended, experimental, censored, independent, silent, student-made, medical, unreleased, underground, animated, family movies, camera tests, news reels, outtakes, and other kinds of productions that challenge any attempt at classification.
