Overview

Mission

Missing movies seeks to bring awareness to the problem of movies becoming unavailable to the general public and to educate current filmmakers on steps they can take to preserve their work. We also advocate on behalf of films that are missing and assist filmmakers seeking to find lost works.

What it reported doing in 2024

Missing movies created and vetted extensive lists of feature films that have gone missing, assisted multiple filmmakers in locating their works, made presentations at film festivals including tribeca and sxsw, developed an educational program to foster diy preservation including the publication of a preservation guide for filmmakers.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

MIXED - The filed numbers largely add up and revenue comfortably covers expenses. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
