Dutch Film Sector joins forces in eye Film Institute Netherlands
January 28th 2010
On December 31, 2009, The Filmmuseum, Holland Film, the Netherlands Institute for Film Education (NIF), and the Filmbank pooled their resources to form a new organization. With this merger, the Dutch film world has gained a sector-wide umbrella institute that works to support national cinema culture. 
The four organizations now operate under the name eye Film Institute Netherlands. Eye will become the face of Dutch cinema both at home and abroad, and it will function as ambassador of national film culture. The sector institute will target both wide audiences as well as the professional film world. According to eye director Sandra den Hamer: “Our new name is more than just a wink – it marks an important step in a process of change. By joining forces, digitizing the film collection and building a spectacular new headquarters on Amsterdam Harbor, we hope to lay a strong foundation for a contemporary, dynamic film institute where everything revolves around watching and seeing.”
