The relationship between Cineguf and Agfa
Video
Video
The provision of money by the Italian government bound Cineguf to purchase film technology exclusively from the German company Agfa. The adoption of a single supplier and the adoption of a single format - the 16mm - guaranteed central control by the government. At the same time, being able to have the contract for such a large-scale supply was a big advantage for Agfa. The Cinegufs, we should never forget, were a structure of the National Fascist Party for which it was necessary to guarantee top-down control.
