Based on the principle of the world cinemas support and pursuing the goal of strengthening the regional production and encouraging diversity in films, Ciclic has defined a support for the development of international film projects that include representatives of our regional production.
This funding is intended to support the development of feature film projects (longer than 60 minutes) aimed to be theatrically released for the first time. The objective of the funding (not only limited to the first and second films) is to support a project that respects the following three criteria:
- be co-developed by a production company established outside France;
- be directed by a foreign country national;
- be in association with a production company that has a permanent address in the Centre-Val de Loire region (this condition is mandatory at the time of payment of the funding).
The support amount is fixed according to the budget of each project and may not exceed €40,000.
The support application must be submitted by a feature film production company established on the regional territory and holding a memo deal, a co-development agreement or a co-production agreement with a foreign production company. A contract specifying the terms of partnership with a production company established outside France would be required in all cases for the establishment of the agreement between the production company established in France and Ciclic.
