The Olexandr Dovzhenko Film Studios (Ukrainian: Національна кіностудія художніх фільмів імені О. Довженка, translit. Natsional'na kinostudiya khudozhnikh filmiv imeni O. Dovzhenka), named after the Ukrainian film producer, Olexandr Dovzhenko, are large film production studios located in Kiev, the capital of Ukraine.
With the construction of the O. Dovzhenko Film Studios beginning in 1927, it was at the time the largest in the Ukrainian SSR. Although the filming pavilions were still unfinished a year later, movie production had begun. Many memorial plates are located within the studios in memory of the many film producers which had once worked here. One film pavilion is named Shchorsovskyy, because Olexandr Dovzhenko shot his movie, Shchors, there. This area of the studios is currently used as a museum.
The apple orchard located on the side of the avenue near the studios was planted by the order of Dovzhenko himself. Since 1957, they were named in memory of Olexandr Dovzhenko.
