Why has letterpress printing survived? Irreplaceable knowledge of the historic craft is in danger of being lost as its caretakers age. Fascinating personalities intermix with wood, metal, and type as young printers save a traditional process in Pressing On, a 4K feature length documentary exploring the remarkable community keeping letterpress alive.
This film was just a joy from start to finish, quite moving at times, fascinating throughout. It's a great tribute, and celebration of the sheer passion and joy people bring to an almost forgotten art. Beautifully done!
