Film tourism in the Marche

 

The magical places that inspired Italian cinema

 
The Marche, as marvellous as it is unusual for the diversity of its landscapes and terrain: harmonious and sinuous forms, cliffs and caves that alternate with unforgettable beaches, hills that breathe history, tradition and art. 

The region is unique, especially for its nature and is indeed home to several national and regional parks.  For this and for other reasons it has often been chosen as the magical setting for so many scenes in Italian films.

Following the success of the film “Il Giovane Favoloso” directed by Mario Martone that charts the life of Italy’s famous poet Giacomo Leopardi, played by Elio Germano, we list below some of the most important films shot on locations in the Marche.
