Technicolor Foundation
Created in 2006, the Technicolor Foundation for Cinema Heritage is a non-profit entity, acting in the field of preservation and promotion of film and audiovisual heritage, which reflects the history and the culture of a country.
The Technicolor Foundation operates worldwide and as a priority, in countries where archives are at risk. Three main lines guide its programs: preserve a film heritage as a key part of a country’s memory, promote and highlight a film heritage in order to show it and to share it with large audience, train and sensitize everyone who can play a part in the safeguard of film heritage.
The Foundation currently conducts programs in several countries: among them Cambodia, Thailand, USA, India, Turkey, Ethiopia, China, Romania and France.
