Ukraine is seeing strong growth in its film and TV production sector.
According to the National Television and Radio Broadcasting Council (National Council), there will be 35 new films made in the country this year, reflecting a trend also seen in the production of TV programmes.
In the last two years, it has consistently advocated the need to increase Ukrainian productions on TV screens in order top overcome the dominance of Russian content.
It has also actively encouraged film and TV co-productions with foreign partners.
The National Council says that there were only 12 feature films produced in Ukraine in 2013. This figure rose to 16 in 2014 and 24 in 2015.
It is an objective for all feature films to be adapted for TV viewing.
