The Spain Film Commission is the entity encompassing the most important Film Commissions and Film Offices operating in Spain. It was created on March 26th, 2001, within the Audiovisual Sciences and Arts Institute (ICAA).
The Spain Film Commission’s objectives start from the general interest for establishing common criteria in order to:
a) Stimulate and develop the film, audiovisual and multimedia production sector
b) Promote Spain as a film location
c) Coordinate, cooperate and collaborate in the initiatives carried out by each of the Film Commissions
d) Participate as an autonomous agent in debating forums, regulation-analysis commissions, regulatory councils, representative institutions, etc.

Cinema Cities Network
The Film Cities network is an initiative led by the City Councils of Santiago, San Sebastian and Salamanca, born in the framework of the designation of the latter as “European City of Culture of the Year 2000”. The project encompasses the cities of Venice, Thessalonica, Porto, Salamanca, Donostia-San Sebastian and Santiago de Compostela. It is aimed at organising inter-municipal cooperation in order to promote these cities’ own culture and identity by means of their audiovisual production. The idea is to develop common instruments that help the industry to reduce costs, while also facilitating the cities’ competitive presence within the international market as important production centres.
Cinema Cities plays the same role as a Film Commission with the exception of its structure, since it encompasses different offices located in the cities participating in the project.
Galicia Film Commission
The Santiago de Compostela Film Commission works closely with the Galicia Film Commisison, which belongs to the Galician Film Consortium (made up of the Xunta de Galicia’s departments of Culture, Social Communication and Tourism, on the one hand, and Finance, on the other, in addition to Radiotelevisión de Galicia and Galicia’s four provincial councils), which covers the rest of the autonomous region.
