Information:
The Association of European Cinémathèques (ACE) is an affiliation of over 30 national and regional preservation film archives from all over Europe. Its joint role is to protect the European film heritage and to assure that the audio-visual records of our century survive to be enjoyed and studied for generations to come. Recognising that film is essentially trans-national in character and that its problems of survival cannot be solved at national level alone, the founder-members of ACE came together in the late 80s to seek co-operative ways of saving and restoring the European film heritage.
ACE´s main aims are:
- to guarantee the survival of the European film heritage
- to ensure and enhance its continuing visibility on the cinema screen as well as through new moving-image technologies.
