Boris, one of my subscribers, called me up one day and told me he had 2 rolls of expired EFKE bw film and if I wanted them, I could have them.
Naturally, I jumped to the oportunity to test this legendary film, which was actually produced in my hometown. This was also an oportunity to tell a little story of how EFKE came to be, how it (unfortunately) went under and how the photos turned out.
Let me know if you've had the chance to shoot these films :)
