As a member of FIAF - The International Federation of Film Archives - the archive cooperates with other archives around the world for the purpose of research, film exchange, acquisitions, and more. Through this productive dialogue films concerned with Jewish heritage are located and great effort is made to bring a copy of them to the archive.
