The "Kinonedelja" was a Newsreel, first released weekly throughout the year 1918, but only sporadic in 13 issues altogether (No. 30-43) in the year 1919 due to shortage of raw film. One issue contained usually 5,6, sometimes even 7 different topics including news from the frontlines of the civil war, information about manifestations, filmic portraits of activists and functionaries.

Comments: The ÖFM has prints deriving from 14 clearly identifiable editions of "Kinonedelja". The source was the Svenska Filminstitut, whose curator, Anna-Lena Wibom, had discovered the newsreels in the depot of the Swedish television in 1967. In 1973, the Film Museum acquired a set of positive prints from Sweden, with the proviso that the films should not initially be publicly screened.
