This open access book offers a comprehensive and rigorous reexamination of the European Film Industry's (EFI) competitiveness, linking this discussion to broader debates on film policy governance in Europe and internationally. Drawing from new research developed by the REBOOT project, an ongoing Horizon Europe initiative, this volume diagnoses previous limitations in understanding the multifaceted value of the sector. It identifies key issues essential for supporting the EFI's future as both a market actor and a cultural and civic player in European integration. The chapters delve into critical topics such as the governance of film policy, the cultural and economic dimensions of competitiveness, and the role of film in fostering European social cohesion. Expert contributors provide insightful analyses that challenge traditional frameworks, offering fresh perspectives on how to enhance the EFI's role in cultural and creative sectors. Readers will discover diverse perspectives from scholars and practitioners who explore innovative strategies for positioning the EFI as a leader in global cinema. This book is an invaluable resource for researchers, scholars, and policymakers interested in film studies, cultural policy, and European integration. It is particularly relevant for those involved in the REBOOT project or similar initiatives focused on cultural industries. Whether you are an academic exploring new theoretical frameworks or a practitioner seeking practical insights, this book provides essential knowledge for understanding and shaping the future of the European Film Industry.
