Financial incentives for film productions

Since 2012, Film Fund Luxembourg offers only one support mechanism for audiovisual productions to be carried out by a Luxembourg registered film production company. The so called National Audiovisual Production Support (AFS) is a selective scheme which provides discretionary loans to producers to finance development and scriptwriting, distribution and production/coproduction for fiction, animation, documentaries, short films, transmedia and XR projects, repayable from the finished work’s receipts.

Applications are evaluated by a selection committee based on cultural, social and economic criteria. There are 4 to 5 deadlines per year. 

Deadlines and decisions of the Selection Committee can be found under https://www.filmfund.lu/t/documents/selection-committee-decisions-and-more
