Czech Television as a Film Producer in 1992-2002 (Part 1)
The paper recalls the role of Czech Television as a producer, involved in the production of 128 feature films between 1992 and 2002 (an average of 11 films per year), and at the same time seeks to answer the question of what strategy the Czech Television chose to support Czech cinema and how this strategy corresponded with the mission and duty of the public media. Among other things, the text also presents the powers and responsibilities for film production within the organisational structure of the Czech Television, the status and changes in the structure of the producer groups of the Producers' Centre for Artistic Programmes in 1992-2002, a thematic and genre analysis of the supported projects, the rules of selection procedures, etc.
