Podpora kinematografie v České republice

In this bachelor work I'd like to focus on the reasons of support of the film industry from public sources. At first I deal with the question, whether an economic reasoning of state aid exists, or whether it's only lobbing of interest groups. Consequently I look at the process of getting subventions from State fund for support and development of the Czech cinematography. The aim of the work is to find out, whether this support brings benefits, or whether it only represents costs and tax spending. I expect the benefits to come up in form of the promotion of the Czech Republic abroad and in form of tax revenues from the film industry. I refer to reasons, why it is more advantageous to finance the cinematography from the private sector. I focus on the foreign production, for which is the Czech Republic an attractive place. I look at the possibility of investment incentives and their effect on film industry and I try to suggest how to improve current situation.
