The Hellenic Broadcasting Corporation (ERT SA) has announced that it is supporting 12 Greek and international co-productions during its latest round of financing. This is the first slate of funding announced by the new commission for cinema support, which was appointed in February and whose decisions were approved by the end of April. The total amount of €714,000, which is in accordance with the rule that broadcasters should allocate 1.5% of their gross income to Greek cinema, and the selection of just 12 projects – four fiction features, one feature with a limited budget, two international co-productions and five documentaries – are rather limited compared to the broadcaster’s previous slates of funding.
