Abstract
As an art form rising in the 20th century, film has not only made important achievements in history and art but also become an important object of global cultural heritage protection. With the advent of the digital age, especially the rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI) technology, the restoration of film cultural heritage has emerged. This paper traces the historical evolution of film restoration techniques, analyzing the technological advancements from photochemical restoration to digital restoration and then to AI restoration. It discusses how film restoration has undergone revolutionary changes driven by digital technology and artificial intelligence. Through the discussion of specific restoration cases, this paper further reveals the multi-value of film cultural heritage protection and looks forward to the potential of AI in promoting film cultural heritage protection in the future.
