VHS Hero

An artist from Western New York has an unusual obsession: creating “updated” VHS tapes from movies he discovers and loves. He shares his fascination with the format, why he began making the tapes, and the process of transforming a movie he finds in the theater into his own VHS edition.

A personal documentary exploring nostalgia, filmmaking, and the strange persistence of a format that refuses to disappear.
