The World Cinema Foundation is a non-profit organization devoted to the preservation and restoration of neglected world cinema.

It was founded in 2007, inspired by the work of the Film Foundation in the United States, a similar venture which Martin Scorsese founded with George Lucas, Stanley Kubrick, Steven Spielberg and Clint Eastwood in 1990.

The World Cinema Foundation is backed by an advisory board including celebrated directors as Martin Scorsese, Abbas Kiarostami, Wim Wenders, Stephen Frears, Guillermo del Toro and Alejandro González Iñárritu.[1]
