Speaking at Locarno, Switzerland’s Interior Minister has talked up the country’s recent efforts to compete more on the international stage.
Switzerland’s Interior Minister Alain Berset has announced plans to make Swiss cinema more competitive in the international arena.
Speaking at this week’s Locarno Film Festival (Aug 3-13), Berset noted that Switzerland’s Interior Ministry issued a new regulation last month to promote the international presence of Swiss film-making to complement the Media compensatory measures.
A budget of $2.9m (CHF2.8m) is made available by the Federal Office of Culture for the distribution of Swiss and Swiss-international co-productions outside of Switzerland, the participation of Swiss film-makers and their films at film festivals, markets and award ceremonies, as well as training of Swiss filmmakers.
Berset said that further measures will “support the visibility of Swiss films, improve their access to the international market and position Switzerland as a shooting location.”

The most surprising moment in Fast & Furious 6 comes when someone mentions Moby Dick. The notion that anyone involved in this sequel has ever read a book, or even a BookRags synopsis of one, is quite earth-shattering.
But then there are numerous Melville-esque harpoonings in this whale of an annoyance directed by Justin Lin, a young man who exhibited promise early in his career (Better Luck Tomorrow) and has since gone on to directing SAG members who can't act or enunciate, delivering lines from screenplays that are incomprehensible hodgepodges of inane excuses to drive souped-up Tin Lizzies fast, and who beat up or get beaten up by villains who have as much personality as washing machine lint.
Another revelation is that Vin Diesel -- Hollywood's bemuscled cardboard take on the star of those Mr. Clean ads, any of which are more memorable than the offerings of this putrescent series -- shaves his underarms.
