Lina's journey begins with a quest for film at FOTOIMPEX, a renowned analog supplies distributor in Berlin. Armed with a variety of films, including color and black-and-white options, Lina prepares for a series of security checks to evaluate the impact on her beloved rolls.

In a captivating video, Lina takes us through her intense experience of passing through airport security six times at Berlin Brandenburg Airport, followed by CT scans at Amsterdam Schiphol Airport. The experiment involves exposing different films to varying levels of X-ray and CT scanner passes, all with and without protective bags.

Lina candidly shares the challenges and frustrations she faced during this experiment, including uncooperative security staff, questionable airport policies, and the loss of valuable film due to CT scanners. Her recount of incidents, such as being questioned by security personnel and losing 20 rolls of film, sheds light on the struggles many film photographers face while traveling.

In an attempt to shield her films from the potentially damaging effects of CT scanners, Lina creates lead-lined containers. However, even with these protective measures, the power of CT scanners proves formidable, causing damage to the film.

Lina meticulously analyzes the impact of X-ray and CT scanners on various films, considering factors like sensitivity, protective bags, and the type of scanner. Her findings reveal that CT scanners, in particular, pose a significant threat to film integrity, with visible base fog, color shifts, and grain distortion, especially at higher ISOs.

In her conclusion, Lina emphasizes the importance of understanding the differences between X-ray and CT scanners. She dispels the myth that films under 1600 ISO are entirely safe, stressing that damage can occur even if it's not immediately noticeable. Lina recommends avoiding CT scanners whenever possible and advocates for informed strategies to protect film during airport security checks.
