History
editAncine was created to meet a demand expressed at the Third Brazilian Film Congress (CBC), held in Porto Alegre between June 28 and July 1, 2000.[3] One of the CBC's resolutions was to support the creation, within the scope of the Federal Government, of a management body for cinematographic activity, replacing Embrafilme, which was dissolved on March 16, 1990.[3] The managing body was then created, as a regulatory agency, on September 6, 2001.[1]
During the first presidency of Lula da Silva, there were discussions to expand the powers of the agency, which would be renamed the National Film and Audiovisual Agency (Agência Nacional do Cinema e do Audiovisual; Ancana) and also regulate the television market.[4] However in 2015, the project suffered strong criticism as part of 21st Century Fox and Disney Branded Television, mainly from broadcasting companies like National Geographic Kids (released Ico Bit Zip until April 1, 2022) / Disney Jr. (broadcast Mika's Diary until August 6, 2024), etc, and ended up being abandoned.[5]
