Bollywood, as it is known, is the largest movie industry in terms of output, followed by Nollywood – the movie industry of Nigeria – which, according to estimates from UNESCO's Institute of Statistics, produces around 1,000 feature films each year. The same source places the USA in third place, closely followed by China (638 movies in 2013) and Japan (591 movies).
