Filmoteca de la UNAM, Film archive at National Autonomous University of Mexico, Mexico City.
The Filmoteca UNAM is a film archive at the National Autonomous University of Mexico located on the Ciudad Universitaria campus. It holds films, documents, and cinema materials in specialized storage and screening spaces.
The archive opened in 1960 when cinema was gaining recognition as an important cultural document and historical record. It was founded during a period when filmmaking institutions worldwide started systematizing film preservation.
Students and researchers gather here to watch Mexican and international films for their studies. The screenings serve as a way to explore how cinema documents social change and historical moments.
The facility offers public film screenings in multiple projection rooms throughout the campus. Visitors should check in advance about screening schedules, as most showings occur on weekdays and student researchers may have priority.
The collection houses thousands of films from different countries and time periods stored in climate-controlled vaults. This preservation method ensures that rare and fragile works survive for researchers and students of the future.
