The Dietze Family Archive

The Dietze Family Archive, curated by Himansu Rai’s three grandsons, is a Melbourne-based collection of more than 3,000 cultural artefacts gathered from the legendary Indian film studio, The Bombay Talkies.

This extraordinary archive, which traces Indian cinema’s journey from silent film to sound, represents the most comprehensive collection of 1920s to 1940s Indian film studio ephemera in the world.

Public access to this remarkable archive and the potential purchase of copies of archive material is currently being considered.

If you are interested in this possibility we would love to hear from you.
