restoration part of the first (and popular) Konkani film Mogacho Aunddo (Love's Craving) (1950), by A.L. Jerry Braganza. The restoration was undertaken by L'Immagine Ritrovata, a restoration laboratory in Bologna. Media reports said the reels of the film were handed over by a relative of Braganza (his nephew, Angelo Braganza) to Dantas in 2010 during the release in one of his books, and Dantas, in turn, passed it on to prominent Konkani film director Bardroy Barretto, who managed to get the job done.
