Havana is recorded as a filming location for 3 productions. Wikidata records these shoots at town level: somewhere in Havana, rather than at one identified spot. Wikipedia names it for 17 more. 1 production is also set here.

1 production was filmed at 6 places inside Havana rather than at Havana itself: listed below, each with the place it was shot.

“The series is the first Korean drama filmed in Cuba and the production spent approximately a month of filming in Havana's Castillo de los Tres Reyes Del Morro, Hotel Nacional de Cuba, and Avenida Malecón.”

Movies and TV series filmed in Havana

Filmed here, per Wikipedia

Productions whose English Wikipedia article names Havana 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 Havana

1 production shot at 6 places inside Havana, each named beside it. Separate from the list above, which is what Wikidata records against Havana itself.

Set here

Animated films that take place here. Nothing drawn was ever filmed here, 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.

Set here, per Wikipedia

Games whose English Wikipedia article says they are set in Havana, where Wikidata’s narrative-location statement stops at the country. Still a setting and not a shoot, and still a sentence rather than a statement: two steps from the strongest evidence on this atlas, and labelled at both.

Drawn from this place

Anime whose Japanese Wikipedia article names Havana as a real place their setting was modelled on. Nothing was filmed here and no story happens here: somebody drew it from here. That is the weakest claim this atlas makes about a place, which is why it sits under its own heading, and each production’s page links the article the claim came from.
