Vllth ANNUAL CONGRESS OF THE INTERNATIONAL SCIENTIFIC FILM ASSOCIATION
This year the Annual Congress of the I.S.F.A. was held in London and was organized by the British member-body of the I.S.F.A., namely the Scientific Film Association. Thanks to the foresight of the British Film Institute an excellent venue was already available in the National Film Theatre, and the Royal Festival Hall provided a meeting place for the General Assembly as well as facilities for Group papers and discussions.
Twenty-seven countries were represented at the
Congress and films were submitted by twenty-four of them.
The films selected for the two Gala Film Performances were of an exceptionally high standard and while some were of the popular science type others demonstrated high specialized scientific techniques. All were worthy of the occasion.
A most happy departure was that during the period of the Congress a total of 28 hours was allocated to the public screening of films.
