The UCLA Film & Television Archive is committed to rescuing, preserving, and showcasing moving image media to ensure that the collective visual memory of our time is explored and enjoyed for generations to come. The Archive is the second-largest repository of motion pictures and broadcast programming in the United States, after the Library of Congress, with more than 500,000 holdings. The Archive is a unit of the UCLA Library.
The Archive has restored hundreds of titles, which are regularly screened around the world and
in our public programs at the Billy Wilder Theater at UCLA’s Hammer Museum and in our Vir tual Screening Room. The Archive’s public programs present more than 115 events each year, highlighting diverse filmmakers from the early days of cinema to today’s emerging artists.
With the Golden Globe Foundation’s generous support, the Archive is launching a new Artist-In- Residence Program and continuing the “Making Waves: Showcasing BIPOC Filmmakers” screening program.
