Hellenic Film Commission

The Hellenic Film Commission will be at TIFF to discuss the potential of Greece as a filming destination, all funding opportunities and, of course, the newly introduced 40% cash rebate and 30% tax relief schemes. The HFC, beyond a directorate of the GFC, is also your primary contact point when filming in Greece. We support international audiovisual productions planning to film in Greece by providing information, location scouting support program, advice and guidance on funding, incentives, filming permits, locations, industry regulations and more, free of charge.
