June 23, 2020 - Netflix today announces HOMEMADE, a collection of short films created by celebrated filmmakers around the world.

Produced by The Apartment Pictures, a Fremantle company, and Fabula, HOMEMADE is a celebration of the craftsmanship of filmmaking and the enduring power of creativity in the face of a global pandemic.
Filmed using only equipment found at home, the stories range from intimate diaries of the filmmakers' day-to-day life to short tales of fiction across multiple genres, offering a magnifying glass over how the lockdown impacted different countries and lives around the world.
Lorenzo Mieli, CEO of The Apartment, Fabula's Juan de Dios Larra n and Pablo Larra n have rallied filmmakers from all around the world to join the project.
