The ‘FAM Trip to Chile from India’ is the first action of the reactivation of the Film Commission Chile, which will be managed by ProChile and the Ministry of Culture, Arts and Heritage. This aims to consolidate the interest of international producers in filming in Chile, connecting them with the Chilean audiovisual industry and encouraging future co-productions.
