Movies and TV series filmed in Bucharest

Filmed here, per Wikipedia

Productions whose English Wikipedia article names Bucharest as somewhere it was shot, with no matching statement on Wikidata. Weaker evidence than the statements above, so it gets its own list, each production’s own page links the exact section the claim comes from.

Movies and TV series filmed elsewhere in Bucharest

2 productions shot at 15 places inside Bucharest, each named beside it. Separate from the list above, which is what Wikidata records against Bucharest itself.

Set here

Video games that take place here. A game is filmed nowhere, so this is where the story is set rather than where a camera stood: a different claim from everything above, and kept under its own heading for that reason.
