Jane dearly wishes to marry her soldier fiancé, but her father tries to stand in her way! Shot in the Presidio in 1915, the film features images of a long since disappeared San Francisco.
Jane’s Declaration of Independence was restored in 2019, after SFSFF Board President and Lead Restorationist Rob Byrne discovered a unique nitrate print of the title at EYE Filmmuseum in Amsterdam. While the print is somewhat incomplete, the film nontheless contains reocrds of San Francisco buildings no longer standing. A collaboration between EYE Filmmuseum and SFSFF, the restoration was generously funded by the National Film Preservation Foundation.
