The camera was donated by Georgiana, who found this artefact at her grandparents’ house. Her grandfather was a professional cameraman who made documentaries about the inhabitants of different regions of Romania.
This artifact invites you to delve into the world of documentary filmmaking, celebrating the artistry of capturing reality on celluloid. It serves as a reminder that, beyond its mechanical components, a camera is a storyteller’s tool, a conduit for narratives that endure across generations. – Mirona Radu, curator
