Film Fund Luxembourg and Screen Ireland are delighted to announce the four selected projects of the Luxembourg – Ireland Co-Development Scheme.
The Fund was relaunched at this year’s Cannes Film Festival and aims to improve the representation of female and non-binary filmmakers across the screen industry, in both Luxembourg and Ireland. For the 2023 iteration of the scheme, applications were encouraged from projects that engage with new, emerging, and underrepresented voices.
A Selection Committee, composed of representatives from Film Fund Luxembourg and Screen Ireland, assessed the four submitted projects.
