Who can apply
Professional scriptwriters or writing groups, for Finnish film production
Limited to Finland. More than one test applies, such as where you live and where your company is. The source only partly spells this out, so read the official rules.
What you get
Grant of up to €24,000, paid at €2,000 per grant month
| Headline amount | €24,000 | €2,000 per grant month, maximum 12 months / €24,000 per project; not per co-writer. |
|---|---|---|
| Monthly grant | €2,000 | Maximum 12 months per project. |
Amounts stay in the currency the organiser uses. Caps, totals and alternatives are listed as published; don’t add them up.
What it costs
The official page didn’t state an entry fee when we read it on 17 Oct 2026. That isn’t the same as free: check the form before you count on it.
What to bring
The materials list isn’t in our notes. The application form will have it.
Terms to read first
| Money terms | No ordinary revenue recoupment established for the listed grant route; reporting, eligible-cost, contractual and recovery-for-breach terms still apply. |
