Bagheria is named as a filming location in the Wikipedia articles of 3 productions — in the section each entry below links back to. No Wikidata filming statement points here yet, so this page says plainly which kind of evidence it rests on.
1 production was filmed at 2 places inside Bagheria rather than at Bagheria itself — listed below, each with the place it was shot.
“Cinema Paradiso was shot in director Tornatore's hometown Bagheria, Sicily, as well as Cefalù on the Tyrrhenian Sea.”
Filmed here, per Wikipedia
Productions whose English Wikipedia article names Bagheria as somewhere it was shot, with no matching statement on Wikidata. Weaker evidence than a Wikidata statement, and labelled as what it is — each production’s own page links the exact section the claim comes from.
- Cinema Paradiso 1988
- L'Avventura 1960
-
Baarìa
2009
“The film was shot in both Bagheria, where Tornatore was born, and in an old neighborhood of Tunis, Tunisia; the latter location used because it could better depict what Bagheria looked like in the early 20th century.” Wikipedia

Named here by Bagheria’s own Wikipedia article
Productions this page’s own Wikipedia article says were shot at Bagheria, where neither Wikidata nor the production’s own article records it. That is the weakest evidence on this atlas, so these get no pin on the map and stay out of the downloads — the sentence is quoted in full below each one so you can judge it.
