Balegari.Jon Whitehead keeps a low profile. He barely has any hits on Google, and his avatar on Twitter is a man in silhouette. He's not a fugitive, though there are days when he can feel the law closing in. He describes himself as a “man on a mission to find and preserve the rarest and most obscure films ever made." In 2014, Whitehead started the website Rarefilmm. With a team of volunteers, he has since digitized, subtitled, and uploaded nearly 3,000 “forgotten” films for the benefit of an enthusiastic community of users, on whose voluntary donations the site subsists. These are orphan films—films for which the copyright has expired or which the rights holders have neglected, and which have little potential of being professionally restored—many of which cannot be found anywhere else on the internet. They come from around the world: Kazakhstan, Yugoslavia, Ghana, Albania, and other underappreciated national cinemas.
