The Danish Film Database (Danish: Filmdatabasen, formerly Danish National Filmography, Danish: Danmarks Nationalfilmografi), is a database maintained by the Danish Film Institute (DFI) about Danish films since 1896 including silent films, short films, and documentary films.[1][2][3] When it went online in November 2000, it included data on all c. 1,000 Danish films produced between 1968 and 2000, and c. 10,000 persons,[4] which by 2014 had been expanded to 22,000 titles, 106,000 persons and 6,000 companies.[5] A media gallery with photos, programmes, poster scans, and trailers is available. The database also includes information on premiere dates for foreign films in Danish cinemas since 2000.
