337 productions have been made in Piedmont over the last ten years with the support of the Torino Piemonte Film Commission.
Despite the sector crisis, 2009 ended on a positive note for the region: it is estimated that audiovisual investment in the territory was well above 30 million Euros.

Three important sets welcomed in the new year in Piedmont.
Filming will soon be completed on the two part animated TV series for Mediaset, “Due Mamme di troppo”, directed by Antonello Grimaldi. Filmed in Vigna Chinet, the Porta Palazzo market, various private apartments and shops around Turin, the cartoon is produced by Italian Media Service.
