"Home Movie Day" Film Screening
Light Industry
This event has ended.
A celebration of amateur filmmaking held annually at venues worldwide, Home Movie Day is an opportunity for individuals and families to dig out their home movies and share them with an audience. It's also a chance to have your prints and tapes inspected by archivists and learn about their long-term care and preservation. Stop by for half an hour or hang out the whole day!
Bring these formats and we’ll do the rest:
FILM: 8mm, S...uper 8mm, and 16mm
VIDEO: Hi-8mm and VHS
"There's no such thing as a bad home movie. These mini-underground opuses are revealing, scary, joyous, always flawed, filled with accidental art and shout out from attics and closets all over the world to be seen again. Home Movie Day is an orgy of self-discovery, a chance for family memories to suddenly become show business. If you've got one, whip it out and show it now." - John Waters
