Armenian film, as a genre, was supported by the Soviet Union, as were all the arts. At one point, HaiFilm studios had a staff of 1100 and was able to produce four feature films a year, together with 2 short subjects.

After a decade when the state budget could not provide funds for even one full-length feature film, today HaiFilm studio, the state film agency, is able to fund one full-length feature film. The rest of today's productions are coproductions with foreign entities.

But even as film budgets are cut, there are more than two dozen graduates in film direction each year. As a result, what the film studios can't afford to keep, the television industry benefits from.

The government, in addition, to beginning to provide a small production budget each year, is also developing a policy on film preservation and promotion.

Here, we provide the list of all full-length feature films with Armenian directors. Most have been produced in Soviet Armenia, or the Republic of Armenia. A few are foreign productions, with Armenian directors.
