Biography
The National Film and Sound Archive of Australia (NFSA), based in Canberra and known as ScreenSound Australia from 1999 to 2004, is Australia's audiovisual archive, responsible for developing, preserving, maintaining, promoting, and providing access to a national collection of film, television, sound, radio, video games, new media, and related documents and artefacts. The collection ranges from works created in the late nineteenth century when the recorded sound and film industries were in their infancy, to those made in the present day.
Channel description
This channel presents titles from the Film Australia Collection (1913 to 2008), a body of government‑produced documentaries and programs that capture Australia’s social, cultural and historical life.
The National Film and Sound Archive of Australia's mission is to collect, preserve and share Australia’s vibrant and diverse audiovisual culture, reflecting who we were, who we are, and who we want to be.
The NFSA acknowledges Australia’s Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we work and live, and gives respect to their Elders past and present.
The NFSA is an archive whose purpose is to collect, preserve and share Australia’s historical and evolving audiovisual culture. Some records contain language or depictions that may be offensive and are in the process of review. The NFSA recognises these materials are problematic and are not representative of the organisation’s views.
