Lost Japanese Films

[Christiane Gruen]

Dear all,

I am writing on behalf of the Deutsche Kinemathek - Museum für Film und Fernsehen in Berlin, where we are currently preparing our new 'Lost Films' project.

'Lost Films' is a website collecting and documenting films, which are believed or have been declared "lost". The online database currently contains entries for over 3500 films from more than 20 countries. Several entries are extensively illustrated with surviving documents contributed by archives and individuals worldwide.

The aim of Lost Films is not to produce a definitive list of Lost Films but to provide a collaboration platform for community members to exchange, add and update information. 

A test version of the website is online under https://www.lost-films.eu/

Due to the backgrounds of those institutions and individuals involved, the entries mostly concentrate on European and American films. We would very much like to expand our current entries to include more Japanese and Asian films respectively.

Therefore we ask if anybody knows of any Japanese films, which are believed lost, that they please post to the list or get in touch with me at the email address listed below.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Best regards from Berlin,
Christiane Grün
