"European cinema, in all its diversity and richness, is a vehicle for promoting European identity and, at the same time, European industry. For these two reasons, we should support the production of European films as much as possible. This report focuses on the challenge that producers and cinema owners face regarding the transition from an analogue system to the digital era. These additional and high costs will have harmful consequences for the cinema industry. As such, there is a call for participation in this process by both the public sector and, crucially, the private sector. Establishing a truly European cinema industry requires greater integration within the EU. Financial support through programmes like MEDIA and MEDIA MUNDUS, and the Structural Funds, are fundamental for cinema and image media, as borne out by the example of Alentejo and the north of Portugal. I am voting in favour, as I believe that cinema is an extremely important aspect of culture, in which Europe can make a difference. I also support the promotion and creation of European film festivals, with 100% European films."@en1
