Development of Documentary Films

Film i Skåne invests in the development of audiovisual documentary projects of all lengths with creators and/or companies based in Skåne.

Applications for documentary development are processed on an ongoing basis, with an estimated processing time of approximately 6 weeks after receiving the application.

Who Can Apply?

Producers with companies (including sole proprietorships) can apply. Companies or creators must be based in Skåne.

Guidelines

Film i Skåne invests in documentary projects that are deemed artistically interesting with audience potential regionally, nationally, or internationally.

Our mission is to work for the development of the Skåne film industry, and projects with a clear anchoring in the region are prioritized. Spending of funds in Skåne is a requirement, although filming does not need to take place in the region.

It is also possible to apply for development support for international co-productions with a Skåne-based company as a minority producer.

Film i Skåne aims to reflect society’s composition in terms of gender and cultural diversity in its initiatives.

Read our complete regulations for co-production of film and TV series.
