The Heimat films are presented here as a TV-series. However, I have seen all Heimat films in the movie theater in Amsterdam. The first two series of films in Desmet (in 1984 and 1992), the third series in the Filmmuseum Cinerama (in 2004). In most events you could see two, sometimes three films a night for five or six days in a row. In that way you could see the whole of Heimat 1 and 2 and 3 in one week. As the films span almost two decades and they were only shown once, I think there are not much people who have actually seen all films on the big screen. Another interesting faits divers is that one of the actors, Daniel Smith, lives around the corner here in Amsterdam. In the second Heimat he plays Juan. We ran into him last year during a percussion workshop.
