THE National Film Development Corporation Malaysia (Finas) today handed over Feature Film Screening Incentive 2.0 (ITFC 2.0) totalling almost RM2 million to 22 production companies that have produced feature films registered through the Mandatory Screening Scheme, said its chief executive officer Azmir Saifuddin Mutalib.

ITFC is an initiative of the Communications and Digital Ministy to help and encourage producers to produce feature films, indirectly generating the development of the industry through promotion and industry strategies to industry practitioners.

“This initiative can help encourage the industry to produce more films,” he said after handing over the incentive in Kuala Lumpur.

He also called on industry to produce quality films without neglecting the country’s identity.

This will promote the richness of culture, talent and creativity in the industry, he added. – Bernama, November 14, 2023.
