FINANCE/LOCATION SERVICES
Until the new tax rebates come into effect, most co-production financing involves a complex system of obtaining “French and European elements” that will enable a co-production to be considered “French qualified” — and thus able to generate automatic state subsidies for its French co-producer and distributor — and just as important, permitting them to presell TV rights. The best way for foreigners to navigate the various regulations is through Film France (the French Film Commission) and the network of 40 local and regional film commissions it oversees.
