Home Movie Day

October 17, 2009

Home Movie Day is celebrated annually in over fifty towns worldwide. Bring it home to PFA by sharing with us one or two reels of your home movies on 8mm, Super 8mm, or 16mm. Bring them in before September 25 and we will include as many as possible in a special screening on October 17. Admission is free to anyone who submits a movie for consideration; read the Call for Submissions.
