Federation of Film Societies of Bangladesh

Federation of Film Societies of Bangladesh (FFSB) is the umbrella organization of film societies in Bangladesh. It began on October 24 in 1973 as a federation for all film societies in Bangladesh.[1] FFSB regularly arranges film screenings, film festivals, film appreciation courses and other film making related courses in different cities of Bangladesh. At the end of 2018, FFSB had 40 regular film societies as members across Bangladesh.[2]

FFSB has focused on the promotion of good cinema, worked to acquire feature and short films to feed its member organizations for screenings, and associates itself with both national and international organizations undertaking similar work.[3]
