About this user
Bord Scannán na hÉireann / Irish Film Board (IFB) is Ireland's national film agency. The IFB funds the development and production of Irish films aimed at domestic and international audiences, and promotes Ireland as a location for international production.
Our role sees us directly involved in the creative process of Irish films from script to screen. We provide investment for the development, production and release of Irish feature films, television, animation, documentaries and short films. This funding process has helped Irish Film Board projects to pick up more than 100 awards at key film festivals, including Cannes, Berlin, Venice and Toronto, the most recent major award being the Palme d'Or at the 2006 Cannes Film Festival.
Great film and television drama continues to be made in Ireland year after year. Our success is built on talented Irish producers, directors, writers, cast and crew. The Irish Film Commission promotes Ireland as a film location internationally. The commission with offices in Dublin and Los Angeles ensures Ireland remains a film-friendly location for international film and television.
