The Icelandic Film Centre is required by law to support production, distribution and promotion of Icelandic films, gather information about Icelandic films and publish it, advance film culture in Iceland and encourage stronger links between Icelandic filmmakers and the international film community. In 2003, the Icelandic Film Centre took over all the duties and responsibilities of the former Icelandic Film Fund, apart from running the Film Archive, which became an independent body. Applications for grants are handled by film commissioners and the director will then make the final decision about financial support, based on the conditions set forward in the regulation on the Film Fund. The grants made by the Icelandic Film Fund are divided between the various branches of filmmaking as follows: full-length feature films; documentaries and short films; television fiction. Contact:
