The Agnannet Bureau (Latin: Officium Agnannetensis) is a 2018 Tyreseian film directed by Ojibwe Name and starring Amaziɣ actor Juba Dia. Dia plays X, a journalist at a fictional Tyreseian newspaper's regional office in Agnannet, Charnea. The film follows X's struggles during the ensuing Agnannet Crush of 2015, a period of severe military crackdown that saw discriminatory violence by Charnean government troops against the civilian population and foreigners. X must not only survive being hunted by the military, but report the atrocities and violence; as more and more foreign correspondents are either killed or evacuated, X quickly becomes one of the few voices left who can expose the true nature of the Crush to the outside world.

The film is loosely based on the life of Marcius Caecilius, a world-renowned conflict reporter for the Tyreseian magazine Socialist Light.

The Agnannet Bureau is one of Tyreseia's highest-grossing films in the domestic box office, and . Consequently, the film has brought global attention both to thee Tyreseian cinema scene and to the atrocities of the Agnannet Crush. The film won numerous awards both at home and abroad and jumpstarted Juba Dia's acting career, as The Agnannet Bureau was his debut cinematic role. The Bureau proved beneficial for director Ojibwe Name as well; despite being one of the most acclaimed filmmakers in Tyreseian history, his career had been on hold for decades up until pre-production began on the film. Critics hailed The Bureau as "the Latin triumph" of Name, who returned to work at the State Cinema Guild as a full-time director soon afterwards.
