100 years old, yet its copyright only expired five years ago—in the United States. In Europe and other life+70 regions, the film will remain copyrighted past 2050, even though Lotte Reiniger died nearly half a century ago!

17 min documentary showing Reiniger's technique/process
Just watched the first couple minutes of The Adventures of Prince Achmed and it’s unlike anything I’ve seen before.
It's a filmed shadowpuppet performance.

The Shadow Theatre at "Le Chat Noir" was fairly famous, no?
I was unaware of her.
Thanks!
