Can you provide a bit more detail? Like -

Do you know what kind of film it is?

Is it color with colored dots or black & white with colored dots?

Are the dots still transparent, or are they opague?

Do you see any structure in them? Like fiber type filaments or
are they generally featureless - and are they perfectly circular?
Size?

Do you have any idea how long ago the damage occurred? What kind
of water (fresh, salt, etc?).

THANKS
