The qualification test evaluates the use of the Polish or European cultural heritage in the production, the number of shooting or post-production days in Poland, the use of locations and film infrastructure, as well as the participation of Polish talents and crews. A Polish partner or company registered in Poland is required to apply for support. Refund is paid after the presentation and positive verification of the final report on production.
