Israel Film Archive Is Releasing Its Collection Online
(Jerusalem Post) Hannah Brown - The Israel Film Archive (IFA), which is located in the Jerusalem Cinematheque, features a copy of virtually every film ever shot in Israel, including feature films, documentaries, newsreels and home movies, going back to 1896. The IFA also contains prints of tens of thousands of foreign films. IFA founder Lia van Leer acquired these by persuading the heads of film studios from around the world to leave one copy of every foreign film released in Israel with the IFA.
