In order to be universal, you have to be rooted in your own culture.

Who we are
Founded in 1974, for over 40 years CDL has been known as one of the most established and renowned dubbing companies in Italy. The company’s vast credit list ranges from foreign language feature films and series, to ADR, subtitling and accessibility services. As well as features and series, CDL past and current projects include video games, audio guides, audiobooks and anything involving voice-over artists, sound recording and language-based work.
Our Vision
Back in 1974 a group of well-known Italian actors founded CDL, in order to develop a localization company able to provide the best cultural and artistic service to distribution companies releasing films onto the Italian market.
Our Mission
CDL’s credit list covers over 800 titles of arthouse and independent films, which illustrate better than most words, the company’s philosophy. Our mission is the understanding of each project’s style and nature, remaining as faithful as possible to the author’s original approach and intentions, whilst making it accessible to Italian audience.
