Félix Ribeiro - Dr. Celulóide (1980)

Directed by Leonel Brito

Documentary, TV Movie · 55m

Mini biography of the man who dedicated most of his life to collecting films and printed material relative to moving images, and who worked since his 29th birthday, for the creation of a Portuguese film archive - when not even the world's oldest film archive (Stockholm) didn't exist. The emphasis of on camera comments by his wife, friends, and film critics is more on some of the films he saved, then on his personal qualities - his modesty prevailing even then, for this last appearance on film. He would die two years after this television documentary was shown, in the series "Dos Lumière ao Lumiar", for the Portuguese national television, RTP.
