Cinemas in the crisis: More money for Film and cinema

If people are kissing, soon, in the movies, then it’s still look closer than it already is usually. Because of the “Smooching”, as speculated on Wednesday afternoon, the Director Tom Tykwer, will show particularly clearly, which will have a Corona with the culture in the year 2020 and perhaps beyond – and as ever, the question is, at what the future could be Perfectly the correct Tempus.

If the actor, though, then tested and for corona-free, to each other to kiss, you possibly have a number of spare do. And this Reserve should now be nice and not a time signature. The a bit in the Open extemporaneous thought of Tykwer adapted to the occasion, in which he was voiced by: Monika Grütters, the Federal government Commissioner for culture and the media, had invited to a press conference in the cinema Moviemento in Berlin, to give an Overview of the current relief efforts for the areas of cinema and Film.

“flexibility in the budget management”

In the Detail that is varied as a frame number may serve as a clear point: the BKM, such as the Institution, by Mrs Monika Grütters colloquially usually called, gets its annual budget of two billion euros, a billion more on top. Of these, around 160 million will go to the film industry, which was represented in the appointment by Tom Tyker and Iris Praefke by the management team of the cinemas Moviemento and Arge cinema. The Moviemento has three halls, each with up to a hundred places. Since then, the current distance rules fast so that every second row is only one Person (or a Couple) is allowed to sit. The cinemas for two weeks, re-open, and begin not to get used to a normality (in this particular case, mostly: a fifth of normality). An adequate economies it will not give under these conditions.

In the case of grants, of which Ms. Grütters said, there have been approaches that do not should be actually, in the promotion of culture. You meant cheapness benefits, i.e., compensation of loss of revenue. Given the circumstances, a certain amount of “flexibility in the house but conduct” is essential. Overall, however, there are indications in the case of the support measures of the currently claimed “programme for the future cinema II”, but they are very much tied to the purpose, especially for conversions in connection with the upgrading of establishments for everyday under the risk conditions. Grants for mere Survival while there are also. Thirty million are for art house cinemas as a deficit to compensate for the reduced capacity available. But, in General, must be named, what are the ventilation needs to be converted and at what price. The applications in the low five figures, which are to be processed, the BKM before the appropriate requirements.

A matter for the older Generation?

Tom Tykwer explicitly stressed that he found the “discourse and organizational readiness” in the authority of Ms. Grütters “class”. From his remarks, but it was also clear that the financial efforts are essential, but without clarity on other levels, much of it in vain could be. “280 people in a plane that is full of” that was a size called Tykwer as a comparison. The political decision to follow where and what the distance rules are, and the need to determine scientifically more about the spread of the Virus in certain rooms, are the framework for measures such as the cinema operator price will be paid out this year in the summer.
