Germany

The German Federal Film Fund (DFFF) and its successor, the German Federal Film Fund II (DFFF II), offer significant rebates of up to 25% respectively, on eligible production costs incurred in Germany. These funds aim to attract major film and TV productions to Germany, enhancing the local industry and fostering economic growth and cultural exchange. Meanwhile, the German Motion Picture Fund (GMPF) supports German-language productions and international co-productions, contributing to cultural diversity and creativity within the vibrant German film industry. Together, these initiatives solidify Germany's position as a leading hub for cinematic innovation and storytelling.
