The DER catalogue includes over 850 titles, spanning nearly 100 years. Our archive is one of the most historically important resources of ethnographic film in the world today. Each year, we curate a selection of new films to add to our collection. We look for films that prioritize underrepresented voices, explore contemporary cultural struggles and artistic traditions, and offer longitudinal views of changing communities, cultures, and identities. We’re committed to informing future filmmakers of the history of this work, and supporting productions for teaching cultural literacy to a new generation of global citizens.
