<p>The Foundation recognises that cinema in India has historically existed in unique environments where it has been made, shown, discussed and debated. Such environments need, along with the cinema itself, to transit into the digital era if the cinema that has been made for a century is to continue to meaningfully exist.</p>
<p>Since 1931 to date, India has made around 50,000 sound films. Official figures suggest that around 4.4% of all films made exist in archival conditions. On the other hand, it is likely that low-end sector, including 16 mm, VHS, VCD and DVD, might have 15,000 sound films, i.e. 30%, across the Indian cinemas history, and across regions.</p>
<p>In order to archive what exists, the Foundation will open its doors to amateur archivists, film lovers and enthusiasts, together with academics, filmmakers, artists and all those who take Indian cinema seriously, to achieve the following:</p>
<p><ul>
<li>To recover as much of the Indian cinema as exists</li>
<li>To index and to annotate existing films (director's/scholars/technician/critics commentary, academic references, historical annotations) thereby introducing a new way of viewing them.</li>
</ul></p>

<p>We hope to upload as many as 15,000 titles, with a primary focus on early (i.e. pre-1957) cinema. Even this astonishing target will still be only 30% of all feature films made.</p>
