The Asia-Europe Foundation (ASEF) will support the first edition of the Film Restoration School Asia. The six-day training will take place in Singapore from 18 to 23 November 2013, organised by the National Museum of Singapore, in collaboration with the Cineteca di Bologna, L’Immagine Ritrovata and the World Cinema Foundation. The initiative will provide film preservation and restoration training for 50 young film professionals from Asia to help preserve shared cinematic heritage. 175 participants of different nationalities have attended this programme in Bologna, Italy organised by the Cineteca di Bologna and L’Immagine Ritrovata laboratory over the past five years. Building upon that success, the programme will inaugurate its first edition in Asia at the National Museum of Singapore. The Film Restoration School Asia will include public screenings, lectures and practical hands-on lessons, conducted by experts from around the world. The programme’s goal is to address the current issues surrounding film preservation and restoration while providing participants with practical training of current restoration and archival best-practices.
