The Volunteer Archivists

The Volunteer Archivists tells the story of Srujanika, a volunteer-led collective in the Indian state of Odisha that archived some of the rarest printer publications published in the last 200 years. The archive — Odia Bibhaba — now houses over 10,000 books and hundreds of magazines, newspapers, and dictionaries that otherwise would have been lost forever due to collective negligence and the poor state of digitization by the state archives.

Director: Subhashish Panigrahi

Cast: Puspashree Pattnaik, Nikhil Mohan Pattnaik, Padmaja
