In 1972, the University of Michigan decided to cancel their homecoming parade due to lack of interest and dwindling attendance.

In The Ann Arbor Ozone Homecoming Parade, filmmaker Terri Sarris takes us through the life of the parade through archival footage and the voices of participants and creators.
