It provides financial support for all phases of the projects, from the first script drafts through production to sales, distribution and festival presentations.

The partners behind MOIN Film Fund are the Free and Hanseatic City of Hamburg and the Federal State of Schleswig-Holstein. MOIN Film Fund has c. 15,8m euros p.a. at its disposal (including operative costs). 10 m euros are means issued by the Free and Hanseatic City of Hamburg and 1 m euros are means issued by Schleswig-Holstein. The TV broadcasting company NDR supplies 1.2m euros, ZDF supplies 1.1m euros, and a further 2.5m euros are taken from a contingent of radio license fees as determined by the Legislature. This sum includes 450,000 euros for NDR regional productions, which continue to be granted in accordance with former MSH regulations to strengthen Schleswig-Holstein as a film and TV location.
Four committees consisting of experienced industry experts decide on the allocation of the means: Committee "High End" decides on films with production costs of more than 2.5m euros, committee "Director's Cut" decides on projects with a budget less than this.
