SFSFF recently announced the rediscovery of a lost Cecil B. DeMille production—Silence—which is being restored by the Cinémathèque Française and the San Francisco Silent Film Festival as we speak. Silence will have its world premiere at SFSFF 2017.
Also, the cat is out of the bag: Alloy Orchestra will premiere its new score for one of the most intriguing films of the silent era, Teinosuke Kinugasa’s A Page of Madness(opens in a new tab), in a new restoration.
The complete schedule will be revealed in late March 2017.
