The Film Archive is mix­ing things up a little for the next three weeks. 

On three con­sec­ut­ive Thursdays (start­ing this week) speak­ers from the Edu­ca­tion team and one spe­cial guest will talk along­side rare and inter­est­ing foot­age from the col­lec­tions.

The series is called Talk/Show (just to make it obvi­ous) and it’s a nice depar­ture from the usu­al screen­ing pro­gramme. 

First up is a ses­sion on Wel­ling­ton and its unique geo­graphy and set­tle­ment. Some great foot­age in here includ­ing doc­u­ment­ary extracts, early silent foot­age, gov­ern­ment and unof­fi­cial sources and early home movies.

Will be a fas­cin­at­ing and inform­at­ive look at this rainy, windy, steep place we choose to call home!
