'''Film Australia''', formerly the '''Australian National Film Board''' and Australian '''Australian Commonwealth Film Unit''', was a company established by the [[Government of Australia]] to produce films about [[Australia]]. Its mission was to create an audio-visual record of Australian culture, through the commissioning, distribution and management of programs that deal with matters of national interest or illustrate and interpret aspects of Australian life.
 
The agency consolidated operations into [[Screen Australia]] in 2008. Administration of the Film Australia Collection was transferred from Screen Australia to the [[National Film and Sound Archive]] of Australia on 1 July 2011.
