Dates
The 63rd FIAF Congress will take place from 7th to 12th of April 2007, preceded by the meetings of the Executive Committee which will be held from 3rd to 6th of April.
Venues
The primary venue for the 63rd FIAF Congress will be the headquarters of National Film Center (NFC), a division of The National Museum of Modern Art, Tokyo, in the Kyobashi area of Tokyo.
Located exactly where the head office of a Japanese major studio Nikkatsu used to be and fully renovated in 1995, the headquarters building is only a few blocks away from the Ginza shopping district and within a 15-minute walking distance from Japan Railways (JR) Tokyo Station.
With eight stories above and three under the ground, the building has two movie theaters, Cinema 1 (310 seats) and Cinema 2 (151 seats), a preview room, a conference room, a ground-floor lobby and entrance halls, which offers ideal venues for Symposium, General Assembly, commission workshops, regional meetings and an on-the-spot secretariat office.
The larger theater Cinema 1 is equipped with two 35mm and two 16 mm projectors, capable of screening 70mm film.
Cinema 2 has digital projection facilities as well.
With a capacity of 16 people, the preview room can also screen 35mm and 16mm films.
The other important venue is NFC Sagamihara Annex in Kanagawa Prefecture inaugurated in 1986.
With two-story film preservation vaults (a capacity of 200,000 2,000-foot cans) under the ground and a theater of a capacity of 200 people, the annex is located at 100-minute train ride from the central Tokyo plus 20-minute walk from the nearest station.
The visit to the annex is scheduled on April 10.
