Exhibition

The basic purpose of home movies is to share fun and enjoyable activity, exhibited in the living room, in circles of family and friends, they imply conversations and preservation of memory, but what happens when these films are exhibited beyond the confines of the family home?

As soon as the home movie is taken out of its native environment, it has the capacity to become either senseless or unheimlich. I need to bring the private film - orphaned film - into a world of sense. To make another person's home movie into mine.
