Villafranca is a 1934 Italian historical drama film directed by Giovacchino Forzano and starring Corrado Racca, Annibale Betrone and Enzo Biliotti.[1] It was based on a play by Benito Mussolini, then Italian dictator, about the 1859 agreement between Napoleon III and Count Cavour which led to the Second Italian War of Independence.

The film was made at the Fert Studios in Turin and on location in the city, which had been the capital of the Kingdom of Sardinia at the time of the film's events.
