The East Anglian Film Archive is a collection of films and video tapes relating to life in East Anglia from the early twentieth century to the present day. The aim is to locate and preserve moving images of life and work in Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex and Cambridgeshire, and to provide, where copyright allows, a service of access and presentation. Based n the Centre of East Anglian Studies at the University of East Anglia, the Archive is a non profit-making organisation supported by income from film shows and video tapes, sponsorship and donations, including an annual grant from the Eastern Arts Association.
