20 northern German projects under development

07.06.2024 | NEST funding decision

With NEST, MOIN Film Fund has been breaking new ground in the area of development funding since this year. In addition to customised funding tools, all participants take part in a five-day workshop (NEST Space) and work together on their ideas and drafts. A total of 20 projects were supported in the first two funding rounds.
