Film Collection
The film collection comprises approximately 7,450 videos and DVDs, as well as approximately 1,000 television recordings of documentaries from 1980-1992 and feature films from and about Latin America, the Caribbean, Spain, and Portugal (mostly in their original language).
Since 2000, the focus of acquisitions has been on documentaries, feature films, literary adaptations and interviews. Since 2006, the Förderkreis des Ibero-Amerikanisches Institut e.V. has supported the collection through the targeted purchase of important films from and about Latin America and the Caribbean.
The television recordings are indexed alphabetically and factually by person, author and subject in a card catalog (located in the audio library room). New acquisitions of films from 1999 onward are listed in the online catalog and can be searched using the keyword "Bildtonträger".
