My father was so dumb to keep our S8 films in a gazebo, in a box, ON THE FLOOR.
Because of the heavy rain the floor was flooded.
When he found out, he put the filmrols to dry.
When I received them, I took the reals out and put them saperate in an open box on a dark place, and they have been there for 2 years or so.
Now I was watching 2 of the survived films, but the best are in the pile of fungus/mold.
Now, completely dry.
Is there any way to save some of this film?
Soaking or leave it in some chemical bath, for a few day's, or sevaral threadments?
I don't care if it takes me a week for each film.
Maybe I loose the sound, but save some footage?
Please please please, is there an expert who has the knowledge?
