__________________________
TELEVISION
We are looking for projects from development to financing stage. Preferred to have an anchor broadcaster already attached but not a necessity. Stories do not need a German character or angle for it to be of interest for us.
We do not seek for projects in the genre of pure comedy, period, or anything particularly in genre (sci-fi, horror etc).
Diversity is key for us no matter if it's in regard to storyline, talent in front and behind the camera etc.
