Unlike many guidance books, Adam P Davies, a highly respected film lawyer, has actually personally closed the financiang on some 150 films. There are few peope in the world of film finance as well equipped as he is to co-write such a guide. Comprehensive, spanning many countries, meticulously researched and very well written, this is a completely indispensible guide for all people in the field of film finance, from layman to the most experienced of producers.

After reading The UK Film Finance Handbook I’ve gathered all the ammunition I’ll need to successfully fund and distribute my film. It covered all my questions and gave me better advice than some high priced London lawyers have!
I would recommend this book for people who are just starting out in setting about making a film as well as for the veterans of the industry.
