British Instructional Films

British Instructional Films was a British film production company which operated between 1919 and 1932. The company's name is often abbreviated to BIF.

The company released a number of feature films during the late silent and early sound eras, developing a reputation for making First World War films and documentary shorts.[1] In 1928, the company constructed Welwyn Studios. The company was later merged into the larger British International Pictures, who took over the running of the facility in Welwyn Garden City.
