From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Adams Filmi Oy (previously Adamsin Filmitoimisto) was a Finnish film production company. Founded in 1912 by Abel Adams (1879–1938), the company was later merged with Fenno-Filmi which eventually became Fennada-Filmi. The Finnish Broadcasting Company bought Fennada-Filmi in 1982. In 1986, Adams Filmi ceased to exist when it merged with O.Y. Kinosto and Ky Kino Savoy to form Finnkino.
