Results of the Luxembourg-Canada 2020-2021 call for projects

As part of the Luxembourg-Canads incentive for the co-development and co-production of audiovisual projects, the Film Fund Luxembourg and the Canada Media Fund will together invest just over €385,000 in the co-development and co-production of two projects. The two organisations established their partnership in 2018-2019 and have since invested around €1,290,000 in nine projects, including this round of funding.

P.m.: to be eligible, projects must come from producers who meet each organization's criteria. Projects supported at the development stage will be drama or animation series, animated feature films and digital media projects. The Incentive Measure will also fund digital media projects (including virtual or augmented reality, transmedia projects and enabling technologies) at the production stage. A selection committee made up of representatives from the Film Fund and the FMC evaluates and selects the projects to be supported.
