The cinema of Angola refers to the film industry and culture in the nation of Angola. During Portuguese colonization, popular films were imported from abroad, and movie theaters were popular social venues. In the late-colonial period and at the start of independence, Angola produced several independent films, such as Sambizanga, however during the civil war, film production became difficult. Angola currently suffers from financial issues around the funding of new films.
