In this 2-hour session, get a clear roadmap through Germany’s confusing film funding landscape. We’ll break down the key public bodies—like Medienboard Berlin-Brandenburg, Filmförderungsanstalt (FFA), regional funds, and selective ones like Filmstiftung NRW, revealing what they truly prioritize beyond their websites. We’ll also explore EU opportunities such as Creative Europe MEDIA and Eurimages, and how they fit into a German strategy. The second half dives into applications: crafting compelling treatments, realistic budgets for development and production, common rejection pitfalls, and real-world case studies.
