Film at the Museum: Archive of the Future Documentary directed by Joerg Burger, 2023 - Free

Join us in the Bell Pettigrew Museum for a special screening of a documentary about Vienna's Natural History Museum.

At the Natural History Museum in Vienna, everything that is found on earth and in outer space and that humans can get their hands on is collected, archived, and studied in the name of evolutionary research.

The 2023 film, Archive of the Future, directed by Joerg Burger, captures the aesthetic appeal of the natural-history collection and its working process, illuminating the mammoth project of knowledge preservation and production hidden behind the building's imperial façade.
