Ethnographic film, and visual anthropology more generally, have a well-established position within the discipline’s mainstream. The RAI acts as contact point in the UK for information, networking and advice in visual anthropology, organises film screenings and lectures, and provides a base for international visitors. In addition it supplies a service based on the acquisition, hiring out and sale of ethnographic films, videos and DVDs for educational and academic purposes. The RAI’s ethnographic film library is one of the world’s largest and most important. New titles are added on a continuing basis to both the sales and the archive reference holdings. All films submitted for inclusion are screened by the specialist Film Committee, guaranteeing a standard of excellence unparalleled elsewhere. Growing numbers of film company researchers and broadcasters now consult the RAI film materials. The RAI International Festival of Ethnographic Film is held biennially.
The RAI distributes over 300 DVD and video titles for educational use. The holdings below are arranged in alphabetical order by title, except when the titles begin with the words The or A, whereupon the dvds/cassettes are alphabetised by the following word. Student films, and staff films from the Granada Centre for Visual Anthropology are listed in separate sections.
Titles are distributed world-wide except where otherwise indicated. Please get in touch for alternative distributors if not indicated.
