Resumen
This article offers an overview of home movies, both as a type of production in its own right and as a device in other types of cinema. A description of this film type’s most characteristic features is followed by an analysis of its use in American experimental and autobiographical documentaries for purposes ranging from nostalgia to critical review. Finally, the article explores the case of Jonas Mekas, a filmmaker who uses home movies as the basis for his cinematographic abstract proposals in the form of singularly attractive film diaries.
