Screenplay Rewriting Support

The aid covers the work of rewriting a feature film screenplay, subject to the conditions on language, track record and presentation set by the CNC. The amount depends on the committee’s decision; do not infer it from the catalogue page alone.

The CNC offers selective aid for rewriting feature film screenplays when the project needs further writing work. It is separate from the writing aid and is for the profiles of authors, directors or producers defined by the CNC. Sessions follow a precise timetable: the September 2026 date has passed, so check the next published deadline.
