Programme d'aide à l'écriture de scénarios

The spirit and intent of the Programme d’aide à l’écriture de scénarios for French-language productions is to develop and retain a pool of creative, talented and experienced screenwriters as well as a bank of Canadian feature film screenplays that have high box office potential. To this end, Telefilm also promote the development of partnerships among producers and screenwriters through events such as Le Grand Flirt.  

The financial assistance provided through this program contributes to the overall growth, and professional and economic development of the Canadian film industry. Financial support is available for the writing of both a first treatment for a feature film screenplay based on an outline, and a first draft feature film screenplay based on a treatment.
