Milan is a 2004 Philippine romantic drama film directed by Olivia M. Lamasan from a screenplay she co-wrote with Raymond Lee, who solely wrote the story concept.

Production

Shootings for the film were primarily done in Milan and other Italian cities, such as Venice, where there are sizable Filipino communities. Malou Santos of Star Cinema was behind the idea of making Milan the primary setting of the film because the base of ABS-CBN's The Filipino Channel in Europe is in the city.
