Adoption of a new bill on the film industry

At this meeting, President Tebboune tasked the Minister of Culture and the Arts, Soraya Mouloudji, with "creating a national body whose remit will be assigned to people in the sector in order to supervise the film industry and revive this vital field, particularly with the production in recent years of excellent dramatic works and the emergence of young talent in acting and directing" - official government press release.

The President of the Republic has also ordered to "encourage all talents and cinematographic skills in Algeria, while capturing those among the children of the national community abroad by opening the way for them to present their works and contributions, to make 2024 the year of the launch of cinematographic production".

In this context, the State is committed to "financing up to 70% of cinematographic works through bank loans, while helping people in the sector to set up film studios and cinematographic towns, enabling Algeria to recapture its glory and cinematographic lustre".
