Munich-based production company “Lieblingsfilm” took part in IDM’s Location Scouting Programme and went on a tour of South Tyrol between 7 and 9 August. The aim? To find new locations for their future project.

Cameras have started rolling for a summer of principal photography in South Tyrol/Südtirol. There are some interesting – and large-scale! – projects waiting in the wings for us: family films and dramas, documentaries, and short films.

Three feature films, two short films, and two documentaries were approved for funding during the second 2022 call. The total funding volume amounts to 1,281,000.00 EUR. Six of these projects are from South Tyrol/Südtirol–Italy and one is from Germany – most of them are realised as co-productions and pursue green shooting methods.

The IDM Film Commission was delighted to return to the Côte d’Azur for the 75th edition of the international Festival de Cannes. We enjoyed several jam-packed days of exciting events, catching up with colleagues and making new contacts. As the festival draws to a close, we look back at some of our highlights.
