The cinema of Cyprus came into existence much later than others, with the 1960s generally being accepted as the industry's earliest notable history. The industry has historically suffered from slow growth due to the island's small population—a large percentage of whom are preoccupied by the Cyprus problem—and its awkward geographical location at the crossroads of Southeast Europe, West Asia, and the Middle East.
