Out of the available funding, 1,113,660 EUR has been allocated for wide-ranging themed feature film projects. This year's competition regulations called for special attention to films for children and young people, thus two adventure stories with elements of mystery and fiction have been selected.

Almost all feature film projects are intended as international coproductions, so some projects plan to start filming when the co-financing is also approved by the partner countries.

Among the supported projects are titles by awarded female directors Laila Pakalniņa, Linda Olte, and Ilze Burkovska-Jakobsena, as well as by critically acclaimed male directors including Vitaly Mansky, Stanislavs Tokalovs, Aik Karapetian, Juris Kursietis and Andrejs Ēķis.

The studios with the most supported projects (two each) are Ego Media and VFS FILMS.

The submission of projects for minority coproductions support closed on 16 April 2024, and a competition for the development of film projects is to be announced in August 2024.
