Storage facilities
Initially the Film Archive Department didn't have a proper storage for the preservation of film prints as all the prints were sent to the central archive of the former Yugoslav Cinematheque from Belgrade. Its small collection of just 354 film titles was stored in appalling conditions (the place was small, without the proper temperature, lighting conditions and humidity control as the water was leaking into it) so it had first to find a storage with proper conditions. The Slovene Film Archives section of the Archives of the Republic of Slovenia, which was already a member of International Federation of Film Archives (FIAF), helped the Film Archive Department to get adequate storage in Gotenica (in a former army underground building), where later the necessary work was done to properly maintain the world's film heritage. Currently, the Slovenian Cinematheque film collection (3000 titles on 4200 film prints) is being stored on 500 square meters of air-conditioned areas, whereas additional 200 square meters approximately are being used as a working space (offices and inspection rooms). Furthermore it is necessary to mention that the Film Archive Department is also taking care for the 1680 film prints of the Slovenian Film Fund.
Collections
Among the most valuable prints of the collection are three major discoveries of Slovenian Cinematheque, with which the Slovenian Cinematheque sensationally entered the world of important film archives. These are: the colourized nitrate film print of the oldest preserved feature film by Ernst Lubitsch When I was dead from 1916; the only preserved tinted print of the Franz Hofer's film First traces of age from 1913; and also the only world coloured copy of the film The Juggler (unknown director) from 1909.
