The NFPF is the nonprofit organization created by Congress to preserve and provide access to America's film heritage. Focusing on orphan films that would not survive without public support, the NFPF has preserved more than 2850 films in all 50 states.
A Virgin's Sacrifice (1922) is now streaming on the NFPF site with new music by Michael Mortilla. Starring Corinne Griffith, this snowbound tale was preserved photochemically by @eastmanmuseum.bsky.social and is available for home viewing for the first time.
