Dawson Film Find
The Dawson Film Find (DFF) was the 1978 accidental discovery of 533 reels of silent-era nitrate films in the Klondike Gold Rush town of Dawson City. The reels had been buried under an abandoned hockey rink in 1929 and included lost films of feature movies and newsreels. A construction excavation inadvertently uncovered the forgotten cache of discarded films, which were unintentionally preserved by the permafrost.
