UNESCO City of Film

UNESCO City of Film is a designation given by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) to cities recognized for their significant contributions to film and cinema. These cities promote creativity, cultural diversity, and support for the film industry, fostering innovation in storytelling and moving images. By achieving this status, they gain global recognition, enhance their cultural tourism, and invest in the development of local filmmakers and film-related activities. The program is part of UNESCO's Creative Cities initiative, which highlights the importance of cultural heritage and creativity in urban development.
