Content Portfolio
TV Events: In time for the wedding of the year,
Lifetime Movie Network has commissioned US-based producer Frank
Konigsberg to film William & Kate, one of the
great love stories of our time. This modernday fairy tale portrays
the real-life romance of Prince William and Kate Middleton. The
action and adventure event Isenhart (produced by
Janus Film GmbH) features the first profiler tracking down serial
killers in the Middle Ages! Isenhart is torn between his yearning
for justice and his admiration for the killer's scientific
approach. Suspicions and accusations fly in the TV thriller
Vanished (produced by MR-Film Kurt Mrkwicka GmbH).
After 17-year-old Alexandra disappears without a trace, mysterious
details surface that seem to put everyone involved on the defensive
- as if everybody has something to hide. Rabbit Without
Ears II (produced by barefoot films GmbH) is the sequel to
the most successful German movie of all time. The first part of
this romantic comedy boasted an audience of over 6.3 million! In
the gripping miniseries Russian Roulette (produced
by Graffilm in frosty St. Petersburg) a trip becomes a mother's
worst nightmare when her son suddenly disappears…
Movies: In the crime movie High Society
Murder VIII (produced by Tivoli Film Produktion GmbH), Dr.
Wendelin Winter is certain that precious little time remains to
stop a murderer from committing more crimes. The on-location
adventure African Angel (produced by Dor Film)
shows Dr. Maria Berkel starting her new job at a hospital in the
small African village of Somabhula. As an epidemic begins to
spread, she quickly makes a shocking discovery. Based on Elizabeth
George's eponymous short story, "Remember, I´ll always love
you" (produced by MOOVIE) were the very last words that
Eric Lawton spoke to his wife Charlie before he fired a bullet into
his head. Charlie is determined to uncover the truth and find out
why Eric was suddenly compelled to take his own life.
Series: The new mafia dramedy series
Lilyhammer starring Steven van Zandt of "The
Sopranos" and Bruce Springsteen's E Street Band. After Frank "The
Fixer" Tagliano testifies against his Mafia boss in New York, he
enters the Witness Protection Program and makes an unusual demand:
he wants to be set up with a new life in the small Norwegian town
of Lillehammer. Suspense, camaraderie, adventure and humor are all
featured in the new mystery-adventure kids' series The 5th
Bow (produced by Sultan Sushi). Five brave adolescents
have it within their power to decipher the Magical Book of the Five
Arches. The extraordinary and unconventional lawyer Danni
Lowinski (produced by Phoenix Film) has again set up her
folding table in the mall and is offering legal advice - and action
to match - for € 1 per minute. The dramedy won the 2010 German TV
Award for best series, and is currently piloted by CBS Television
Studios for consideration at The CW Television Network. Casual
jeans, black leather jacket and a cigarette dangling from his lips:
police inspector and 80s-style macho man Mick Brisgau is back in
the second season of The Last Cop (produced by
Granada). Mick is investigating new and bizarre murder cases with
his partner Andreas. Unexpected and serious consequences arise in
the third season of Hidden Defects (produced by NL
Film & TV). Joep and Bram move Apollo Real Estate Agency into a
brand-new office, but cutthroat competition becomes an increasing
threat.
TV Magazines/Documentaries: A unique virtual
high-tech studio designed especially for Galileo Big
Pictures (produced by ProSieben) makes it possible for the
presenter to insert himself into photographs. Successfully
expanding the Galileo brand, each two-hour episode presents the 50
most spectacular photographs on one special topic.
Upcoming Events: Based on a true story, young
Heinrich Bockelmann yearns to travel abroad and seek adventure in
1891 - but where exactly should he go? Deep in thought, Heinrich
Bockelmann suddenly hears The Man with the Bassoon
(produced by Ziegler Film and Graf Filmproduktion) playing a
beautiful, melancholy Russian song. Action and adventure take the
lead in Fateful Love - The Hunt for U864 (produced
by Aspekt Telefilm-Produktion Berlin GmbH). Ellen, part of the
resistance against the Nazis, is ordered to spy on German naval
officer Hans. He is scheduled to serve as chief officer aboard the
submarine U864, which has a secret mission. Against her will, Ellen
falls for Hans. Entertainment for the whole family is on offer with
What Animals Want (produced by Phoenix Film
Karlheinz Brunnemann GmbH & Co Produktions KG). Since Barbara's
tragic death several years earlier, her husband and son have been
alone. So she chooses pets to act as her agents in this world. When
the dog and the pig awake the next morning, they are magically
blessed with the gift of speech. The Revenge of the
Traveling Whore (produced by TV 60 Filmproduktion GmbH) is
the sequel to "The Whore", Sat.1's most successful event movie of
all time.
