Programme Culture et développement en Suisse: Soutien de la DDC aux festivals de cinéma 2023-2026


Film is a cultural expression that sparks debate in societies and therefore contributes to Switzerland’s goals in its partner countries. SDC supports film festivals in order to strengthen film industry in the South and the East. The SDC contribution allows the film festivals Fribourg, Visions du Réel and Winterthur to invest in the exploration of film landscapes, to provide filmmakers with access to professional networks and to learn from each other. It also gives them more visibility in Switzerland, internationally and in their countries of origin.

Das Projekt in Kürze
Hintergrund Art and culture are important means of expression with a potential of reflection, interaction and social change. Therefore, a free culture scene is an important element for a society with freedom of expression. Arthouse-cinema often reflects different points of view about social and political aspects that inspire the thoughts of the public and contribute to a free opinion making.
In SDC’s policy for culture and development, an important pillar is to promote access for artists from the South and East to Swiss and international cultural markets. The SDC policy is a contribution to the implementation of the UNESCO Convention on Cultural Diversity (2005).
Ziele
