In the latest instalment of The Guru - BAFTA's main monthly podcast strand - we delve into the murky world of film financing. Deferred payments, tax reliefs, private equity, public funding: we pull the curtain on the industry's dark arts. It's not as scary as it sounds - promise.

Host Rhianna Dhillon reports from BAFTA's Marketplace Live event, where Parkville Pictures' Olivier Kaempfer explains the various types of investment available to producers. Also, Anita Overland and Damian Jones describe how they raised the cash for the hit biopic The Iron Lady. And finally, we return to the BAFTA Arms for some archive wisdom from producers, execs and decision-makers.

With thanks to Film London & Sargent-Disc.
