According to recent studies they represent different celebrations such as weddings, birthdays or graduations. Those fictions were made during the dark post-war period as an expression for the abandoned enjoyment that humanity had lost through the years.

It was commonly believed that they used this kind of amusement to forget their lonely condition and take refuge in the fantasy world, as they had used theater and literature many years before the invention of film making. As we all know film making was the number one key to imagination, enjoyment and relaxation for many decades. Moving films were very popular from the beginning of the 20th century and lasted for a long period as the most accepted entertainment. The films found from that period tend to represent stories about simple people with endless pursuit for happiness and emotional stability, and they portray merry events where persons can be seen sharing moments of joy.

However new theories have stated that some of the films found in recent excavations, that have miraculously survived the chemical decomposition that has destroyed most of the data available from that period, may not have been produced at professional studios. If those theories are correct it would mean that they were created as home movies in real local reunions. This would bring a new twist to the image that we have had so far about the after World War period. The assumption that the 21st century was a dark and depressive era where nobody ever laughed or socialized may be challenged by the discoveries that some of those images were actually taken from real people and illustrate actual moments from every day life.

Apparently, even on the 21st century humans still retained some primitive manners of amusement like music and dancing, remaining from the very first form of entertainment revealed by prehistorical societies.

From these discoveries new theories about the human nature have started taking shape. The possibility that machinery and technology had the power to completely eliminate the ancient rituals of community and social behavior, as we have formerly believed, can be put to question if we analyze the group phenomena surviving such a violent age. This may be the proof that human nature can remain unchanged in spite of extreme changes in the society and environment and that the primitive feelings and tools of expression that characterized the human race from its very start, based on social instincts and community inclinations, can not be changed by scientific or technological….....
