Sørfond - the Norwegian South Film Fund - is a film fund whose goal is to strengthen film production in developing countries. This evaluation report shows that although Sørfond is still a young fund that so far has supported a small number of film productions, it has already contributed to elevating several filmmakers from developing countries and strengthening the filmmaking communities surrounding them. The evaluation also shows that Sørfond facilitates increased cooperation between filmmaking communities in developing countries and in Norway. In the ever more globalised film industry, Sørfond represents a small, but efficient stimulant for elevating filmmakers from developing countries onto the international film scene.
