Stories Across Worlds
Outer Space Short Experimental Film Festival

Why not pop by our rolling film festival. Relax for a minute away from the crowds and travel off-Earth via a series of short experimental films created by the Archival Futures Collective. This group make films that are inspired by the research materials and collections of museums, archives, libraries and cultural institutions around the world. The goal is to create unique science communication films that allow you to feel not just think - and acknowledge that we have deep emotional and philosophical ties to outer space.
