National Film Archive of Japan

關於

The National Film Archive of Japan (国立映画アーカイブ, Kokuritsu Eiga Ākaibu) is an independent administrative institution and one of Japan's seven national museums of art which specializes in preserving and exhibiting the film heritage of Japan. In its previous incarnation, it was the National Film Center, which was part of the National Museum of Modern Art, Tokyo. In April 2018, it became independent of the National Museum of Modern Art and was officially elevated to the rank of a national museum.

The NFAJ is located in Kyōbashi, Tokyo and is Japan's only public institution devoted to cinema, holding about 40,000 films and numerous other materials in its collection. The Archive has film-related materials on permanent display and it holds special screenings in its theaters. The NFAJ is a member of The International Federation of Film Archives. It preserves many important works of Japanese and world film history including films designated as Important Cultural Properties of Japan like Momijigari.
