Silent Sci Fi project

[Mosfilmfan]

Have you ever heard of the silent science fiction movie Cosmic Voyage (Kosmichesky Reys)? We have a nice copy with Russian titles. We are currently in the process of translating the Russian title cards.
We would like to add the translation to the film and issue it as a DVD. We have started a Kickstarter project to fund this effort, it runs until Thursday September 13th, but so far we have very few contributors.
We're not begging for contributions, but go to the project site and see what we have in mind, then decide if you want to help us in our efforts.
We love silent movies and we love Cosmic Voyage. We'd really appreciate anything you could do to help us out, we want to make it possible for more people to enjoy this great movie.

This looks amazing, whatever it is. Would make for a great double feature with Frau Im Mond.
Also amazing is that this is a silent film released in 1936!
There is already a dvd out of this....

...but if you can make it looking as best as you can, and the trailer does look impressive, then you get a thumbs up by me!

I don't know if you've already looked into this or not, but you might wanna find out if this film is copyrighted.

Welcome to NitrateVille! We hope you'll find interesting conversations and new friends.

I've removed your identical post in the "Film Collecting" area...we ask that topics are posted to just one area to avoid duplication. Thanks.

This film sounds amazing! I'd never heard of it before. DVD Savant's review of the available DVD is here:

I had seen the film a good decade ago (a friend had acquired a video from Gosfilmofond). But this project seems thus far to be taking it to another level. I'd buy a copy.
