Message from the Mayor

Mayor of Mersin Metropolitan Municipality

Vahap SEÇER 

Dear film lovers,

 I am excited and happy to bring the Mersin Cinema Office to our city, which will promote Mersin as a " Film City" at the national and international level and contribute to the cinema sector of our country.

Mersin Film Office is a product of our administrative approach that will give our city a cultural leap forward.

We designed the Film Office (MFO) to assist all productions planning to shoot a film in Mersin.

MFO will find locations, resources, and creative solutions for projects in Mersin. It will also be a point of contact for producers for all production needs, including permits, city services, and logistical support. It will provide filming crews with information about the region and coordinate and facilitate permitting to support production. The Film Office will support film and TV series crews to explore Mersin's diverse locations and will work closely with official institutions to assist filmmakers in obtaining location permits.

It will also act as a facilitator by creating a connection between Mersin's production firms and sponsors, individuals, and institutions.

I genuinely think that the Mersin Film Office will significantly improve the film industry in Mersin and our nation with your help.

Best wishes to all film and art lovers!
