The cinema of Cyprus[a] came into existence much later than that of most other countries, with the 1960s generally being accepted as the industry's earliest notable history. The Cypriot film industry has historically suffered from slow growth due to the island's small population and a lack of interest from the general public who are preoccupied by the Cyprus problem, as well as its awkward geographical location at the crossroads of Southeast Europe, West Asia, and the Middle East.
