Located in the Irish Sea, between England and Northern Island, the Isle of Man is a self-governing dependency of the British Crown. It has a rich Celtic and Viking history, but today, the economy of the Isle of Man thrives on tourism, finance, and online gambling. It’s also attracted attention, and consequently income, from the film industry in recent years, due to its rugged coastlines and open countryside.
