A few weeks ago, I have shot a few rolls of Super8 film, for a short film.
I have cutted these, and the final result has been putted in a can. When I opened this can tomorrow, I smelled a quite strong odor. It seemed the same as the smell of unexposed film. What could this be?
That's just the smell of film. It'll hold that smell for a little while. Are you keeping the film cooled?
I'm storing it at around 15 degrees.

Yea, you should be okay. That smell is just the smell of film. I have some rolls of 16mm that I shot about 2 years ago that, when you open the can, still have that smell.
