EKRAN, Magazine for Film and Television was established in 1962 by the Union of Slovene Cultural Organisations. Since 1997 it has been published by the Slovenian Cinematheque. It is the oldest and most relevant bi-monthly in the region.

EKRAN covers a range of contemporary cinema subjects and auteur film. Through its pages in the 1960s and 1970s Slovene film critics and essayists (Hladnik, Petrovič, Pavlovič, Klopčič, Makavejev) promoted the Yugoslav black wave films. During the 1980s, modern French film theory (Comolli, Bonitzer, Chion, Deleuze, etc) took root and influenced Ekran critics, and the later Lacanian 'Ljubljana film school' (Slavoj Žižek, Zdenko Vrdlovec, Stojan Pelko) used Ekran for its platform. Lately Ekran has been focusing on film production and film artists which work beyond the mainstream, world and independent cinema, reporting from film festivals and monitoring the Slovene film scene. Following the 'renovation' of Ekran in March 2006 the magazine introduced some new content, began publishing in colour (after 44 years of black & white) and invited some new film publicists to work with its editorial team; several foreign contributors also joined as supporting editors.

Ekran's other activities include the Autumn Film School, International Colloquium of Film Theory, and the Ekran 'Nursery' School of the Gaze that was launched in Winter 2006, offering screenings, lectures and discussions for young film critics.
