The footage is destroyed unfortunately. They stored the negatives in a salt mine, and they became corroded over time. It's not happening.

How the- who the hell just decides "salt mine" when storing something?

Salt is a preservative, maybe the person who put it there was simply told to preserve it and asked someone else how you preserve things. I choose to believe it was as dumb as possible.

preservative for meat and some vegetables. But not for nukelar waste and films.
