The Irish Film Institute is Ireland’s national cultural institution for film, operating a campus in Dublin that includes three cinemas, an adjoining café bar, a film shop, and the national moving image collection housed in the IFI Irish Film Archive. Its core activities—exhibiting, preserving, and educating—support access to a broad range of international, Irish, and independent cinema while safeguarding Ireland’s moving image heritage for current and future audiences. The organization serves cinema-goers across Ireland, as well as learners and communities, by offering new releases, curated seasons, festivals, and education programs designed to engage diverse age groups and backgrounds. Based in Dublin and active nationally and internationally, the institute positions itself as a public cultural institution primarily funded by the Arts Council, with a focus on preserving Ireland’s film history and expanding audiences for challenging cinema.
