In The Archives you follow a searching through an analogue archives, where the references just leads on until you’re back on the starting-point. There is a contrast between the amount of information and this searching which doesn’t lead anywhere. There seems to be a missing person, both in reality and in the archives. In the end of the film, the archives comes alive and the drawers starts to move in and out, as if the archives deliberately withholds the information.
