Collaborating organisations
The Filmoteca de Catalunya reports to the Institut Català de les Indústries Culturals (ICEC), which is a public-law entity attached to the Ministry of Culture of the Government of Catalonia. The main purpose of the ICEC is to promote and develop the cultural industry of Catalonia, and the Filmoteca is the organisation responsible for the preservation and dissemination of Catalonia’s film heritage.
The Filmoteca has many links with other organisations, companies and institutions in the film world and cultural sector of Catalonia and, indeed, the rest of the world. These links help to enrich the Filmoteca’s work in support of the dissemination of cinema and the preservation and restoration of our film heritage.
