| NORDIC
FILM AND TV FUND
The purpose of the Nordic
Film & TV Fund is to promote the production of audio
visual projects in the Nordic countries by participating in the
top-up financing of feature films, TV-fiction, TV-series, short
films and creative documentaries.
In order to obtain support from the Fund, the film
has to be suitable for theatrical release, television broadcasting or
other forms of distribution.
The project has to have a satisfactory marketing/audience
potential within the Nordic countries.
In certain cases, the Fund may participate in financing
productions that might have a limited profitability, but which lie within
the Fund's jurisdiction and which otherwise fulfill the Fund's other
criteria.
The Fund will also promote audio-visual productions
by supporting project development, distribution and promotion, and Nordic
language versions.
The Fund also administrates funds from the Nordic
Council of Ministers, which are earmarked for distribution and film
cultural initiatives
Project evaluations are based on the entirety of the project on the
basis of content and artistic, production and marketing criteria. In
addition, there will be an evaluation of the production's feasibility.
There are no pan-Nordic thematic requirements, national
quotas, or requirements in regards to the artistic or technical staff.
Productions aimed at youth and children will receive
special attention.
