SYSPLEX Film is part of the SYSPLEX Information Technology and Media Ltd. family, an established Hungarian enterprise founded in 1990. Our media division began its journey in 2008, focusing on the rapidly growing high-tech film production market. Since then, our team has amassed a wealth of experience, producing a range of Hungarian and international television commercials, internet campaigns, and feature films. 

One of the biggest draws of shooting in Hungary is the 30% film tax rebate on qualifying production costs, recently increased and extended through 2030. Foreign productions benefit even more when factoring in eligible foreign spending, potentially reaching 37.5% in total rebates. As there is no cap on the rebate budget, Hungary has quickly become one of the most sought-after filming destinations in Europe—perfect for ambitious projects of any size.

• Non-repayable rebate on approved production costs.
• No ceiling on total rebate allocations—suitable for major studios and indie outfits alike.
• Rapid and efficient application process, streamlined by working with a licensed Hungarian production service provider like SYSPLEX Film.
• Coverage extends to foreign expenditures, up to 25% of the overall Hungarian spend, providing additional financial incentives.

Hungary’s government is committed to nurturing the country’s film industry, ensuring that rebates are handled efficiently through a well-organized administrative structure. By choosing SYSPLEX Film, you unlock a direct path to these substantial cost savings, effectively boosting your ROI while enjoying the comfort of a single, reliable production partner.

What sets SYSPLEX Film apart is our end-to-end approach. Unlike most production houses that outsource critical elements, we possess in-house camera, lighting, and grip rental, as well as a complete post-production facility. This structure translates to simpler logistics, quicker turnaround times, and—ultimately—lower costs.

While our clients often cite significant tax rebates and competitive pricing as their reasons for choosing Hungary, they swiftly discover there are even more advantages:

• Versatile Locations: Hungary boasts a broad range of environments, from the gothic spires of medieval towns to modern urban landscapes. This diversity enables countless set possibilities without requiring extensive (and costly) travel.
• Global Credibility: High-profile projects such as Blade Runner 2049, Dune: Part Two, and The Witcher have all taken advantage of Hungary’s cinematic charm.
• Skilled Workforce: Hungarian crews are lauded for their technical expertise, professionalism, and adaptability.
• Efficient Permitting: Government agencies work closely with production teams, providing a hassle-free experience so you can focus on creative decisions rather than red tape.

Beyond servicing external productions, SYSPLEX Film also plays an active role in co-productions. Whether we act as the lead or join in as a strategic partner, our local knowledge, resources, and connections to private equity investors can prove invaluable. Our previous co-productions include titles like Lovemakers, featuring Daryl Hannah and Billy Zane, The Deal, 12 Toys of Christmas, and Silent Zone, a post-apocalyptic action-thriller. In every instance, our involvement helps streamline processes and provides vital financial, logistical, and creative support.
