During World War II, home movies captured rare and compelling glimpses of daily life amidst a global conflict. These personal films, shot on 8mm and 16mm cameras, documented family moments, military service, and the impact of war on communities around the world. From soldiers recording their experiences on the front lines to families documenting life on the home front, these home movies provide a unique perspective on the human toll and resilience during one of history's most devastating wars. Preserved in archives and museums, these films offer a tangible connection to the past, allowing us to witness firsthand the sacrifices and triumphs of ordinary people caught in extraordinary circumstances.
