A strange story from Somerset, England about a filmmaking farmer and the inspiring legacy of his long-lost home movies.
Founded in 2004, the Festival originated in Wisconsin and Minnesota by Joe Pickett, Nick Prueher and Geoff Haas, childhood friends from Wisconsin. While still in high school, Pickett and Prueher began collecting videos from garage sales, training videos from odd jobs, and copies of tapes from a video production house. The friends would then play selections from this collection for entertainment at parties. In 2004, Pickett and Prueher quit their day jobs to focus on production of their first feature documentary, Dirty Country. They started the touring Found Footage Festival show to fund the production of the documentary. In addition to its regular touring schedule, the Festival has appeared at the HBO US Comedy Arts Festival, Just For Laughs (the Montreal comedy festival), the New York Comedy Festival, the Impakt Festival in the Netherlands, and the Central Standard Film Festival in Minneapolis, MN. The Festival is currently based out of New York City.

During a frigid winter, a fire in his wood stove spiraled out of control and his house was quickly engulfed in flames. While he and his family narrowly escaped harm, the house and all of his possessions were lost. After the smoke cleared, he decided to return to his gutted former home to make one last short film. Likely the first comedy film shot entirely inside the protagonist’s home after being destroyed by fire, Everything I Learned When My House Burned Down is a lesson in finding humor in life’s darkest moments.
