1977 · Short film · 14 min

Synopsis

SOUND FILMSTRIP IS AN AT-RISK MEDIA FORMAT. The media format is largely forgotten and very endangered. Don't know what a filmstrip is? COPYRIGHT AND TAKEDOWN REQUESTS. If you hold rights to any material in this archive and wish to discuss its removal, please contact Uncommon Ephemera directly before filing a takedown request with any platform. A takedown removes material immediately and without discussion, and may count as a strike against the Uncommon Ephemera account. Platforms respond to accumulated strikes by removing the account entirely, which would result in the permanent loss of thousands of pieces of historically significant preserved media that have nothing to do with the material in dispute. This is a sound filmstrip that has been fully restored into the included video which properly simulates how it would have been presented originally. ORIGINAL SCANS AND AUDIO INGEST INCLUDED. The original frame scans and audio capture are included in this archive. STAY IN TOUCH. NOTES This preservationist loves a good conflict of interest. It’s often illuminating to see what passes as education or public service in a culture. While there are much more egregious examples — such as filmstrips from food consortiums or drug companies targeted at elementary school children — this one deserves a closer look as well. Care for Two: Baby and You sounds like an innocent enough title, and its opening frames indicate the filmstrip will be shown to expectant mothers who are out of school…
