Archive projects

The curatorial and archive teams work to showcase the vast collections of the BFI National Archive and to bring them to a wider audience in cinemas, on television, on DVD and online.

In 2012/13 the Archive was central to the projects The Genius of Hitchcock, Ealing: Light and Dark and Steel, and is a partner in the The Artist in the Archive initiative.

The Artist in the Archive
