Archival Encounters

A series of digital exhibitions of materials held by the Bill Douglas Cinema Museum.


In these exhibitons, University of Exter students explore items from the archives of the Bill Douglas Cinema Museum, contextualising them in the various histories with which they intersect. From film novelatisations to toys produced to as tie-ins for TV series, these collections take you on a journey through the material histories of cinema and TV.
