VIKING FILM FUND (VFF)
What is Viking Film Fund?
Viking Film Fund is an initiative by Viking Sunset Studios aimed at supporting the Indonesian film industry on a global stage. Addressing the funding challenges faced by filmmakers in Indonesia, our program is dedicated to nurturing local talent and fostering industry growth.
Selected projects will receive prestigious funding, enabling filmmakers to help cover essential production costs and fully realize their creative visions. This financial support together with the use of their professional film-making equipment like ARRI, Leica, Sony, and green-screen studio, will unlock new opportunities for filmmakers to create captivating films that resonate with audiences both locally and internationally.
VFF 2024 RECAP
Let's take a look at our Viking Film Fund 2024, where we award 1 billion IDR to selected filmmakers in Indonesia.
We are humbled by the incredible response we’ve received since opening submissions for the Viking Film Fund last year. The outpouring of talent and creativity from young and aspiring filmmakers has truly warmed our hearts and exceeded our expectations.
In total, we had the privilege of reviewing 50 film submissions, each one a testament to the passion and dedication of Indonesia’s emerging filmmaking community.
After careful deliberation, we are thrilled to announce that 20 exceptional films have been chosen to advance to the next phase of our funding process: live pitching.
