Saint Kitts and Nevis Is Developing a Film Industry

MSR Media Group announced plans to shoot five films in the Federation of Saint Kitts and Nevis, three of which have already been filmed. This is not only an investment in the country's film industry but also an opportunity for youth talent development in the Federation.

“We came up with the idea that we had to develop a Ministry of Entertainment, Talent development and Entrepreneurship that will provide the resources necessary to take our people to the international stage in terms of the activities they have developed a fondness for executing it here at home. We had not yet imagined that we would have had MSR come so quickly in the term and provided a catalyst for the further development and perhaps the fast-tracking of our programmes for involving our young people in entertainment and assisting them in the development of their talent…We will learn from MSR Media Group and others as to how to develop the best policy framework that will allow for more and more persons to come,” said Prime Minister of St. Kitts and Nevis, Dr. the Hon. Timothy Harris.

To date, MSR Media Group has recruited 60 local residents on a permanent basis. According to the Prime Minister, after the production of films, the nascent film industry will affect the country's economic growth.

“There are tremendous opportunities in a developing country like ours, but one where there is positive energy and positive leadership with grand views of where our country must go. For me St. Kitts and Nevis must become the model of the best managed state, on all indicators that matter within the world…St. Kitts and Nevis is maturing its own capacity and indeed its ability to play on the global stage. By bringing your movies here, you add again another vintage to our program of elevating our people, creating a better quality of life and of course instilling positive views in our own capacities as individuals. From this and the other movies that will come over, we will develop our own local stars or rather internationalize the talents of the people here in St. Kitts and Nevis to be the best they can be in their area of choice,” the Prime Minister Harris said.


The Prime Minister also suggested that MSR Media Group members acquire citizenship by investing in the country through the Citizenship by Investment program. The program offers a number of benefits:
