It is an interesting fact that the collection of the exhibits was created exclusively by voluntary donations made by fans and connoisseurs of the Uzbek cinema.
The national artist of Uzbekistan, Ruzy Charyev, made a great contribution to the film archive collection. He drew a group portrait of filmmakers, which has become a key exhibit in an exposition of the new museum. He called all artists who were engaged in film activity to present the sketches for movies to the archival fund.
In the Museum of Cinema in Uzbekistan, residents and visitors can be acquainted with the documents, black-and-white photographs, films with perforations, animated films, and "silent" films.
Visitors have the opportunity to see the restored silent film "Second Wife," which was shot in 1935. They also present such movies as "Tenderness," "All the Mahalla—full of roumors," "Fascinated by you" and many others.
