Remnants of early films often have a story to tell. As material
artifacts, these film fragments are central to cinema history,
perhaps more than ever in our digital age of easy copying and
sharing. If a digital copy is previewed before preservation or is
shared with a researcher outside the purview of a film archive,
knowledge about how the artifact was collected, circulated, and
repurposed threatens to become obscured. When the question of
origin is overlooked, the story can be lost. Concerned contributors
in Provenance and Early Cinema challenge scholars digging through
film archives to ask, "How did these moving images get here for me
to see them?" This volume, which features the conference
proceedings from Domitor, the International Society for the Study
of Early Cinema, 2018, questions preservation, attribution, and
patterns of reuse in order to explore singular artifacts with long
and circuitous lives.
