Viva Films (El Kadsre)

Viva Films is an El Kadsreian film company founded on June 16, 1959. It is owned by Viva, Inc.

History
Viva Films was established as early as 1959 when Viva, Inc. merged the two movie studios they already acquired in 1958, New Republic Productions, which distributed Columbia Pictures films, and Great Cinema Company, which distributed MGM films, both in the West El Kadsreian market. The first film produced was Life in a Person.

They were one of the most prolific movie studios of all time, distributing both Columbia and MGM films. The company gained momentum when Viva is distributing its major sci-fi film Sacred Atom in 1977. In 1982, Viva signed a deal with Tri-Star Pictures to distribute its films for ten years.

In the 1980s, the company tried to enter the kadresatsu market with a film called Cyborg X-4, and later with Masked Boarder. Both of them were neither as universally shown as rival El TV Kadsre Films' Bionicle and Vlokfilm's Neo franchise. In 1987, Viva signed a deal with Weintraub Entertainment Group to market its films in the Vlokozu Union.

In 1995, MGM relinquished its distribution rights in the El Kadsreian market from Viva to El TV Kadsre Films and in the meantime, signed a four-year agreement to distribute films from Mandalay Entertainment (until 1999, when the deal moved to Vlokfilm), and a six-year agreement to distribute films from Phoenix Pictures, both in the El Kadsreian market.

In 2000, Viva signed a distribution deal with Revolution Studios to distribute and market its films in the El Kadsreian market for seven years. After the deal with Revolution expired, Viva signed a deal with Overture Films to market its films, and later with Relativity Media.

Currently, it is one of the top film distributors of the market, distributing the majority of films from Sony Pictures Entertainment (others are distributed by PPE Pictures), and various mini-major studios.
