Focuses on the history of government subsidies for feature films in Flanders (the northern, Dutch-language region of Belgium) and its role in stimulating a Flemish identity. It provides an empirical contribution to the study of the relationship between film, national identity and governmental film policy.

This book is a timely empirical contribution to the underdeveloped field of Belgian film history.

By focusing on film policy, the book contributes to the long neglected but currently burgeoning international field of film policy studies. Furthermore, because of its focus on film policy, the book provides an original contribution to the international research tradition on the relationship between film and national identity by going beyond an examination of textual representations.
