Arhus, the old town

In 2003, a group of film archivists created Home Movie Day, an annual international screening event that celebrates amateur filmmaking and provides information about film preservation. Each year, volunteers in cities around the world set up projectors and invite people to see their home movies projected in public venues. In 2005, the Center for Home Movies was established as a non-profit corporation to administer Home Movie Day and to engage in new home movie projects and to act as a clearinghouse for information about home movies. The Center’s mission is to collect, preserve, provide access to, and promote understanding of home movies and amateur motion pictures. Information about Home Movie Day and "Living Room Cinema," a DVD compilation of films shown at Home Movie Day events, can be found at www.homemovieday.com.
