Show Notes

The Government has confirmed it plans to funnel more money into New Zealand's film production sector.

The $577 million injection over the rest of this year and the next four brings the total International Screen Production Rebate to $1.09 billion.

Eligible productions can access a 20 percent rebate where production costs are more than $15m for feature films, and $4m for television productions.

Great Southern TV's Phil Smith joined the Afternoons team to discuss.
