Four foreign film shooting projects will receive co-financing from the "Riga Film Fund" this year

In 2022, the "Riga Film Fund" co-financing was granted to four foreign film projects. The commission approved four film projects in June, granting co-financing for 800,000 euros.

The following projects received a positive conclusion of the co-financing with Riga municipality: 


SIA "Cinevilla Films" application for "Sisi 2", which will be made in cooperation with STORYHOUSE Pictures (Germany), with a co-financing intensity of 20% of the costs. Filming in Latvia is planned for June-August 2022. 

 

SIA WHITE PICTURE's application "Book about everything" will cooperate with KAAP HOLLAND FILM BV and FATT PRODUCTIONS BV (Netherlands), with a co-financing intensity of 20% of the costs in Latvia. Filming in Latvia is planned for August-September 2022. 

 

SIA WHITE PICTURE's application "Eva's invitation" will be made in cooperation with Tuffi Films (Finland), with a co-financing intensity of 20% of the costs. Filming in Latvia is planned for July and August 2022. 

 

SIA Ego Media application "Einsteins and Margarita" will be made in cooperation with ALMAR FILM LLC and LAMF LLC (USA), with a co-financing intensity of 20% of the costs in Latvia. Filming in Latvia is planned for July-October 2022. 

 

Since the total demand of received applications exceeded the available amount, the tender evaluation commission stopped accepting applications this year after the first round of applications. In general, the planned co-financing amount of Riga Municipality for the 2022 competition is 800,000 euros. The co-financing of the "Riga Film Fund" will be paid out after the completion of the filming, when the producers submit information about the use of the supported funds in Riga and Latvia.
