Film Screening at the Museum: Unarchived

Join us at 3:30 pm on Canadian Multiculturalism Day, Tuesday, June 27th, for a free community screening of the National Film Board's new film "Unarchived," a feature-length documentary about the people and places often left out of traditional archives and museums and the communities who are challenging this erasure. Unarchived surveys the inspiring work of community archives across BC, including those of South Asian Canadian, Chinese Canadian, Tahltan Nation and LGBTQ2S+ communities.

In this new feature documentary, co-directors Hayley Gray and Elad Tzadok highlight community archives from across British Columbia to reveal some of what has been erased from the official record.
The people and places left out of traditional archives and museums are often determined by the dominant power. Local knowledge keepers are undoing these omissions and hand-fashioning a more inclusive history. 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.
