French movie export revenue 2003-2022
From 2003 to 2022, the annual revenue generated by the export of French movies fluctuated considerably. Compared to the first decade of the new millennium, the French movie industry managed to increase its export revenue during the 2010s, while even reaching peaks of over 200 million euros in 2012, 2015 and 2017. Whereas they had already been in decline two years prior to the Covid-19 pandemic, the revenues coming from French movie exports took a blow in 2022, as they reached a new low of just over 88 million euros. Since then, numbers have been recovering slightly, yet they are still falling short compared to the figures reached in previous years.
