Deputy Ministry of Culture (Cyprus)

Due to the small cinematographic production volume and also to language restrictions, Cyprus cinema needs more boosting for passing the national borders and find co producers from other European countries. Therefore, we strongly believe that Cyprus participation in EFP´s various programs could build more bridges and synergies between Cyprus and other European cinema professionals that will help Cyprus cinematography to blossom and to travel far beyond its narrow geographical borders.
