Touching memories.

Set a cinematic memorial: The Movie Of Life authentically tells the story of a loved one, creating a space for remembrance, gratitude and healing.
For you. For your loved ones. For eternity.

Inspired by
life itself.


Do you know what makes a person immortal? 

It is the memories of the people who shared a piece of history with the person. Memories of shared experiences, moments and experiences. Of shared laughter, crying and being together.

Memories are a powerful tool. They help keeping relationships alive. They are a gateway to people, relationships and things we no longer have in our lives. And they are never completely lost, but waiting to be reactivated.

Still, sometimes we find it hard to hold on to them or find a way to deal with them. The Movie Of Life is the medium to keep them. The Movie Of Life creates a cinematic memorial to a loved one and tells his or her authentic life story - using photos, videos, sound recordings and written documents.



What remains, when everything else leaves?


In the hustle and bustle of everyday life, we often fail to give the past the space it deserves. Or we fail to find a common way of dealing with our loved ones.

The Movie Of Life brings the past into the present and creates a space where remembering, reflecting and healing together becomes possible. Instead of dealing with loss all alone in silence, The Movie Of Life creates a unique place where you, your loved ones and your descendants can return to honor a piece of family history.

A cinematic monument of endless love.


Do you know the feeling of deep gratitude? This feeling is conveyed by our Movies Of Life. In them, a loved one comes to speak once again - in words, in actions and in images that make you feel the love for the person again and again. The Movie Of Life brings the past into the present and lets you ask: How did a loved one shape me? What unforgettable moments have I shared with this person? Which of my good qualities and character traits do I have to thank him for?

The Movie Of Life is a way to pause, reflect and find a way to deal with loss. As a provider of these special mementos, film is first and foremost a medium for us. The essence is the small stories and big emotions it preserves. We tell an authentic and vivid story in which you can recognize the loved one and yourself and connect deeply.
