"The Century of Cinema" is a series of personal documentaries commissioned by the BFI to celebrate the centenary of film. For this series, some of the world's leading filmmakers were invited to provide individual interpretations of the history and development of cinema in their countries. The result is a fascinating look at highly disparate national cinemas and 100 years of film around the world.

The participating filmmakers include: Martin Scorsese & Michael Henry Wilson (USA), George Miller (Australia), Stephen Frears & Mike Dibb (England), Shue Kei (China), Anne-Marie Mieville & Jean-Luc Godard (France), Edgar Reitz (Germany), Mrinal Sen (India), Donald Taylor Black (Ireland), Bernardo Bertolucci & Enrico Ghezze (Italy), Nagisa Oshima (Japan), Jang Sun-woo (Korea), and Nelson Pereira dos Santos (Latin America).

The participating filmmakers include: Mohamed Tazi (North Africa), Pavel Lozinski (Poland), Stig Bjorkman (Scandinavia), Jean Pierre Bekolo (Sub-Saharan Africa), Sergei Selyanov (USSR/CIS), and others.
