At Scenery, we believe that great storytelling deserves the right support, not just creatively, but financially. That's why we actively invest in the development and funding of high-end documentaries and factual series with international potential.
Our Funding Intiative
In 2023 we launched SV DOCS, a documentary development initiative in collaboration with V-Ventures, the investment arm of Vereniging Veronica. Over the course of five years, SV DOCS will award €1 million in development funding to exceptional documentary projects. We support stories with a clear global scope, strong authorship, and a foundation in rigorous journalistic or research-based work.
In addition to our own fund, Scenery has successfully raised financing for multiple projects through the Netherlands Film Production Incentive, a national scheme operated by the Netherlands Film Fund. This incentive offers up to 35% cash rebate on eligible production costs spent in the Netherlands, making it an attractive route for international co-productions and productions with significant creative or financial impact.
