Wir fördern von der Stoffentwicklung bis ins Kino

For more than 25 years, we have been promoting the development of Baden-Württember’s commitment to the film sector. The state of Baden-Württemberg and the public broadcasting company Südwestrundfunk, MFG's shareholders, are significantly financing our activities while ZDF/Arte have also been involved as partners since 1999. However, there is more to it than just us providing the money: our strengths are also in expertise and consulting services within the film and cinema industry.

An annual budget of around 15 million euros is allocated to all of our funding measures for cinema and TV productions from content development—also for documentaries—to distribution. This and our numerous measures with regard to infrastructure are main factors in contributing to maintaining the diversity of BadenWürttemberg’s cinema landscape.
