The filming of the children's television series Sinbad is being shot completely in Malta, leaving some €8 million in the Maltese economy.
The series is being produced by Impossible Pictures and is to be broadcast on Sky and BBC.
Visiting the set at Fort Ricasoli this morning, Finance Minister Tonio Fenech said that Malta was regularly attracting quality productions.
These could benefit from rebates of up to 22 per cent on the eligible expenditure.
The government was also investing in local talent through a number of specific courses and a film fund to help local productions.
Brad Pitt's World War Z and the Norwegian film Kontiki were shot in Malta in the past weeks.
