A plasma display apparatus and a method of making the same are disclosed. The plasma display apparatus has a film filter formed by laminating multiple functional films, an electromagnetic interference shielding film of the film filter is oxidized with a conductive material, and the electromagnetic interference shielding film and grounding means are grounded. The method of making a plasma display apparatus having a film filter formed by laminating multiple functional films according to the present invention includes the steps of blackening the entire surface of the electromagnetic interference shielding film by coating with a conductive material, forming a black frame by laminating a color-dye film on the electromagnetic interference shielding film, and laminating an antireflection film on the color-dye film.
