The Texas Archive of the Moving Image is bringing the award-winning Texas Film Round-Up to the inaugural North Texas Film Festival, benefiting the Veterans Institute for Film & Media.

"We are excited to partner with the North Texas Film Festival and Veterans Institute for Film & Media to see what unique stories will be discovered. Film and video are vital, but often discarded, sources of images of the past,” said the Texas Archive of the Moving Image’s Executive Director, Dr. Caroline Frick. “In particular, the experiences of Texas military service members are far too underrepresented in the archive today. We hope to find films and videotapes capturing Texans' military life at home or abroad, recent or old, to enrich a new Lone Star history for the 21st century."
