The Motion Picture Association (MPA) is the international counterpart of the Motion Picture Association of America.

History

The MPA is an offshoot of the Motion Picture Association of America, which was started in 1922 as a trade organization for the American film industry. Its task was to curb criticism of American films of the era, and give a more favourable image of the film industry.

Following World War II, in 1945 its counterpart the Motion Picture Export Association of America was formed to restore the American film market, and fight the trade barriers and restrictions imposed on American films.
