The Archivists is a 2020 Canadian short drama film, directed by Igor Drljaca.[1] Set in a dystopian future in which all art from the past has been banned, the film centres on William (Noah Reid), Serena (Bahia Watson) and Samuel (Maxwell McCabe-Lokos), an itinerant trio of musicians who happen on a secret room whose contents include an old vinyl record and a phonograph, and are inspired to perform a rendition of one of the album's songs after listening to it.[2]

The film premiered at the 2020 Toronto International Film Festival.[3] It was subsequently named to TIFF's year-end Canada's Top Ten list for short films in 2020.[4]
