Unarchived

2022 | 1 h 24 m
Documentary

This is a one-off, exclusive opportunity to see the National Film Board of Canada production, "Unarchived".

In the new feature documentary Unarchived, co-directors Hayley Gray and Elad Tzadok highlight community archives across British Columbia to reveal some of what has been erased from the official record.

Local knowledge keepers are hand-fashioning a more inclusive history through family photos, newspaper articles and scratchy old VHS tapes. These different collections tell stories of people building connection through work, play, protest, family and tradition.

Through a collage of personal interviews, archival footage and deeply rooted memories, the past, present and future come together, fighting for a space where everyone is seen and everyone belongs. History is what we all make of it.

Doors will open at 6.45pm and the screening will begin at 7pm.

Seating is limited and so pre-registration is required. Please contact the museum on 250-494-9395 or admin@summerlandmuseum.org to reserve seats. Entry by donation.
