The Southern Forest Land was released in theaters on October 13 and has become a hot topic in the media and social networks in recent days. While public opinion has not yet ended the debate about the historical elements in the film, The Southern Forest Land continues to cause a stir with the information that the film was made with the State budget.
According to information from the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, ordering film production from the State budget is implemented annually. Accordingly, the first step is to plan and register a film production plan for the year from script sources of State and private film studios.
On September 5, 2018, Hoan Khue Film Production Joint Stock Company (HK Film) sent an open letter to the Department of Cinema regarding investment support for the film project Southern Forest Land within the framework of the feature film production program ordered by the State.
Pursuant to Article 24 of the Cinema Law No. 62/2006/QH11 and Circular No. 15/2016/TT-BVHTTDL on the organization and operation regulations of the Literary Script Appraisal Council for films using the State budget, the Central Council for Appraisal and Selection of Feature Film Scripts for the 2017-2019 and 2019-2021 terms of the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism has taken steps to appraise the script for the feature film Southern Forest Land .
Based on the appraisal results, on June 14, 2021, the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism issued Decision No. 1867/QD-BVHTTDL approving the script of Southern Forest Land to register the plan to produce a feature film ordered by the State in 2022.

According to the film production process using the State budget in Article 13 of the Cinema Law No. 62/2006/QH11, registering the film Southern Forest Land in Decision No. 1867/QD-BVHTTDL is the first step.
The production unit then builds a film production project profile (including storyboard and implementation plan; list of main members participating in making the film; total budget estimate of the film; technical equipment for the project; financial capacity; production plan, schedule, and funding conditions) and submits it to the Film Production Project Selection Council of the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism for approval.
Based on the results of the Film Production Project Selection Council, the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism will decide to produce the film Southern Forest Land based on the total budget approved by the State.
However, after balancing the approved budget for ordering film production in 2022, along with a number of other objective reasons, the film was not on the list of works using State funding to order.
Therefore, Hoan Khue Film Production Joint Stock Company produced the film itself from private funding.
