The changes mainly concern the film levy for television broadcasters and streaming services. In future, public and private television broadcasters and streaming providers will only be able to replace 12.5 % of their levy with advertising time for cinema films, instead of the original 40 %.<\/p><p>The coalition parties (SPD, Greens, FDP) voted in favour of the amendments, while the CDU\/CSU welcomed the draft but criticised the reform as incomplete, as there are still no concrete regulations for tax incentives and investment obligations for streaming services. The AfD criticised the law for its ideological orientation, in particular because of the provisions on diversity and gender equality in the allocation of funding.<\/p><p>The draft bill also provides for a strengthening of the German Federal Film Board (FFA), which is to be responsible for both tax-financed and cultural film funding in future. In addition, a diversity advisory board will be established and the promotion of accessible film versions is to be improved. Further changes include partially automated cinema funding and the abolition of the previous funding commissions. Authors and directors are to be more involved in the success of their films.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bundestag.de\/presse\/hib\/kurzmeldungen-1028496\">German Bundestag<\/a><\/p><p>Picture: \u00a9 Pixabay<\/p><p class=\"false\"><span style=\"color: windowtext; text-decoration: none; text-underline: none;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Berlin, 6 November 2024 The Bundestag's Culture Committee has approved the amendment to the Film Funding Act after the federal government's draft bill was passed in amended form.
