Swiss Films: Who Qualifies and What You Get

Professional filmmakers and video creators in Switzerland can access specialized support for the promotion and distribution of their creative work.

Swiss Films is a national program designed to provide professional support for the promotion and distribution of film works.

Who it's for

This scheme is specifically intended for professional filmmakers and video creators. It is designed for those working within the professional landscape of the film industry rather than hobbyists or casual creators.

What you get

The primary benefit of this scheme is support for the promotion and distribution of your work. This means the program helps ensure that your film or video content reaches its intended audience and finds its way into the proper distribution channels, helping to increase the visibility of your professional projects.

What it costs you

There is no specific monetary fee mentioned for accessing these resources, but there is a significant investment of time required. You will need to navigate the formal application process, which involves preparing your professional materials and meeting the requirements set out by the issuing body.

The catch to know

The most important thing to understand is the specific intent of the support. The program is focused on high-quality cultural content. Because the goal is to foster cultural value, this support is not available for commercial advertisements or purely commercial marketing materials.

How to apply

  1. Visit the official website to understand the current requirements for professional creators.
  2. Gather the necessary documentation regarding your professional status and your specific video or film project.
  3. Navigate the application process as outlined by the official guidelines.
  4. Submit your materials through the official digital portal.
