    ZAGREB: In the first half of 2016, four international productions chose Croatia as their filming location, with additional six in the pipeline. The projects originate from the UK, Denmark, Sweden, Germany and the US.

    One of them is the first season of the series Knightfall, produced by the A&E Television Network (U.S.) and Stillking Films (Czech Republic), which started shooting in Dubrovnik on 27 June 2016 with the Croatian company PAKT Media providing services. 

    According to the Croatian Audiovisual Centre, in 2015 Croatia attracted a series of high-profile international productions. Ten productions applied for the 20% filming incentive, generating approximately 21 m EUR in local spend.
