| − | In order to qualify for public funding for an international co-production from the Slovene Film Fund, participation by a Slovene producer is compulsory. Financial support is granted in the form of public aid, but if the film is co-financed by the Slovene Film Fund some funds must be returned under an agreement to share income from film distribution. Public aid is limited to 80 per cent of a film’s budget. Co-productions by Slovene and foreign entities are regulated by the Regulations on Criteria for Selecting and Co-Funding National Film and Video Projects (ratified by the Slovene Film Fund), according to which only a producer based in Slovenia can propose the co-financing of an international co-production project. Foreign producers must find a Slovene producer who will apply for co-funding from the Slovene Film Fund. Co-productions by Slovene and foreign producers are eligible for Slovene funding where the Slovene partner contributes at least 30 per cent of funding, or the same share in artistic or technical/logistic terms. A Council of Europe agreement on multilateral co-productions allows Slovene producers to apply for government support offered by other European countries, providing they meet the necessary criteria. Shooting in public places is regulated by the Decree on Special and Subordinated Use of Public Places (Official Gazette Nos 90-94). Since its establishment in 1994, the Slovene Film Fund has supported all films produced in Slovenia, and represents the main source of financing for Slovene film producers. Slovene producers can also obtain additional funds from the public broadcasting company Radio-Television Slovenia (RTV Slovenia). Slovenia has been a member of the European film fund Eurimages since 2000, and European co-productions are more and more common way of production. In 2004 mediadesk.si was created, distributing information and providing assistance for the EU Media funding programmes.

| − | Because of its ideal position at the heart of Europe and the great diversity of its landscape, Slovenia is well suited to developing co-productions with foreign countries. Some of its most successful collaborations include Quand vient I’amour (Maurice Cloche) with France in 1955 and La grande strada azzura (Gillo Pontecorvo) with Italy in 1957. Slovenia’s main partners were and have remained Italy, Austria, Germany, Croatia, Hungary and France.
