Goskino
Goskino ( Russian Государственный комитет по кинематографии СССР , USSR State Committee for Cinematography) was the central authority for cinematography in the Soviet Union .
history
The first authority for film production and distribution of the RSFSR until 1924 was called Goskino. The successor organizations were called Sowkino (until 1930) and Soyuskino. Sojuskino's task was to centrally control the film industry, including direct political control of all film productions. Soyuskino's mandate extended to the entire Soviet Union from 1931/1932.
A new Goskino authority was established on March 23, 1963 by the Council of Ministers of the USSR . From 1965 to 1972 it was called the "Committee for Film Affairs of the Council of Ministers". From 1972 to 1978 the committee got its original name back. Between 1978 and its dissolution on November 14, 1991 , it was called the "State Committee of the USSR for Cinematography". Alexei Wladimirowitsch Romanow (1963–1972) and Filipp Timofejewitsch Ermasch (1972–1986) were among the directors of Goskino .
Start-up
In 1992 the successor authority "Roskomkino" (Государственный комитет Российской Федерации по кинематографии, State Committee for Cinematography of the Russian Federation) was founded and later renamed "Roskino". Roskino was dissolved in May 2008 by Vladimir Putin's Decree No. 867.
