During its existence BFI produced 13 newsreels and documentaries on events including the Madiun Affair, Operation Product, Operation Kraai, and the Linggadjati and Renville Agreements. These works were the basis of several later ones, produced during the early 1950s, following Indonesia's actions during the national revolution. They were also compiled in the 1951 documentary "Indonesia Fights for Freedom", distributed to the United Nations. A semi-fictional account of BFI was presented in Usman Effendy's 1985 movie "Film dan Peristiwa" ("Film and Events").
