Information

Mini-Cinema is a Dusty Worldwide Travelogue - Kitsch Carnival - Super8 Extravaganza

An Independent Film Archive dedicated to the Acquisition, Identification, Preservation, and Dissemination of Lost Amateur Films that are culturally or aesthetically significant.
The Collection strictly includes Vintage Super8, Regular 8mm & 16mm Home Movies.

Mini-Cinema produces Found Footage Impressionistic Documentaries.
Selected Reels with remarkable footage are carefully assembled and edited, conceived as a poetic postcard, with most respect for the original filmmaker. No rules, no argumentation, something like Transposed Reality.

Mini-Cinema needs to cooperate with sound artists and musicians to create well integrated audio-visual works.
The resulting Short Docs will be submitted to Independent & Experimental Film Festivals for public exhibition

Mini-Cinema is also a Microstock Boutique featuring a unique collection of vintage film clips available for Direct Download.
They can be purchased under the Mini-Cinema Royalty-Free License.
These Orphan Recordings have No Model or Property Release.
They should be used fairly, for editorial, documentary or Artistic purposes.
All sales profit goes back to this No-Budget One-Man Project from Montreal.

With over a thousand film reels in the vault, most of them still unviewed... I keep digging the archive for treasures!
Browsing Mini-Cinema, like strolling The Grand Bazaar, will bring you bits and pieces of amazing Oriental Folklore, Scratchy Portraits, Bizarre Performances, Psychedelic Abstractions, Grungy Textures and other Experimental Eye Candies.

A Special Shout Out to all Visual Artists, Documentary Filmmakers, Multimedia Designers, VJs, Musicians and Retro-Fanatics out there!

You are welcome to contact me if you have any information about the filmmakers or the subjects of these films.
