Danish Film Institute

The Danish Film Institute (DFI) is the government agency responsible for supporting and encouraging film and cinema culture and for conserving these in the national interest. DFI operations extend from participation in the development and production of feature films, short and documentary films, over distribution and marketing, to managing the national film archive and the cinematheque. The DFI Film House, open to the public, is also an entertainment and edutainment facility, with its cinemas, videotheque, restaurant and café, bookshop and filmmaking studio FILM X. Located in central Copenhagen, the Film House also provides a vibrant meeting place for cinema-goers, filmmakers and filmbuffs alike.
