Support for the Creation and Production of Fiction Feature Films
This regional aid concerns fiction feature film projects and can cover different phases of the project. Eligibility depends in particular on the applicant, the film’s stage, the rights, the link with the region, the financing plan and the rules applicable to public aid. Consult the official page for the up-to-date scale and timetable.
The Région Sud supports fiction feature films at several stages: writing, development and production. The scheme targets works meeting the regulatory definition of a feature film and the regional criteria of quality, cultural diversity and territorial benefits. The application must distinguish any grant requested by an author from the aid requested by a production company; the conditions and amounts differ.

Who can apply
Depending on the strand, authors, directors or screenwriters may apply for writing support, while delegated production companies may apply for development or production support. The registered office and rights held must meet the criteria of the rules.
Eligibility conditions
Check the regulatory definition of a feature film, the applicant’s role, copyright, the cultural or geographical link with the region, spending and production time in the region, secured financing and any broadcaster commitments. The conditions vary depending on the stage being funded.
What the scheme covers
Writing grant, artistic or technical development, preparation of the film and production of the fiction feature film, only in the categories and costs accepted by the official page.
Amount and funding terms
The amount depends on the strand (writing, development or production) and the project’s characteristics. Do not use a generic amount from the audiovisual category: consult the official page dedicated to fiction feature films and the session’s guidance notes.
