The best bit of my job is the detective work involved in digging up weird and wonderful archive footage. Over the years we’ve screened films of a 1950s Land Rover expedition to the Far East, the first women to motorcycle through Africa in 1934, and the underground 1971 psychedelic road movie Cycles South. But for me, the most exciting find of all has to be the film of the Omidvar brothers’ 10-year expedition around the globe in the 1950s and 60s. Discovering a lost film like this is akin to finding that rare record you didn’t even know existed.
