The audiovisual sector fund (FSA) is one of the most relevant public cultural policies formulated and implemented in Brazil in the last two decades. The FSA was created in 2006 as a specific category of the National Culture Fund (FNC), and regulated in 2007. However, it began in 2012, with the approval and implementation of law 12,485/2011 (Pay TV Law), that the FSA started to directly impact the production chains of the Brazilian audiovisual content market. With the intense expansion of the use of smartphones for the consumption of audiovisual content, the FSA began to have more financial, administrative and political resources, further impacting the creation, production, distribution and exhibition of Brazilian audiovisual content (series, films and animations). As a corollary, over the last fifteen years, the FSA's collection mechanisms, the actions of financial agents, continuous flow notices, disbursements related to central lines of action, regionalization mechanisms and the actions of the National Cinema Agency have been consolidated. (ANCINE) as the central body for managing and operationalizing the fund. However, the crisis experienced by ANCINE between 2019 and 2022, and the political-economic impact suffered by the large-screen cinema market vector (mall cinema), as a result of covid-19, resulted in many discontinuities and serious operational problems within the scope of the FSA, directly affecting the creative process, production, distribution, exhibition and consumption of Brazilian audiovisual content.
