Millstreet Films recently co-produced Erik Van Looy’s box-office hit THE PRIME MINISTER, which was partly financed by the Production Incentive. We have strong relationships with Dutch distributors, extensive experience with local institutions and financiers and an in-house post-production supervisor.
