| IFFH Announces Film Fund |
The Indian Film Festival of Houston has announced the IFFH Film Fund to support Indian filmmakers as well as filmmakers interested in India-centric films. According to IFFH, “program seeks to help emerging filmmakers realize their feature-length narrative and non-narrative film projects that reflect universal themes inherent within international Indian culture.”
The IFFH Film Fund seeks to support projects in all phases of the filmmaking process (development, post-production, marketing and distribution). The first phase of the Film Fund is a Development Grant. Complete eligibility requirements, application, rules and conditions will be announced in late August. Below are some general guidelines: |
- The Development Grant is open to writers of Indian descent as well as to projects that have Indian content by non-Indian writers.
- Writers should not have more than one produced feature film among their writing credits.

- The Development Grant is offered to narrative features only.
- The winner, to be announced in January 2012, will be awarded up to $10,000.
- All finalists will receive feedback from the IFFH Film Fund committee.
- All finalists will receive a Final Draft software gift certificate.
- The recipient of the grant will have the opportunity to hold a staged reading of their screenplay at IFFH 2012.
