Alfred Haber Adds Zig Zag Series to Catalogue

PALISADES PARK, May 14: The U.K.-based Zig Zag Productions
has appointed Alfred Haber Distribution, Inc. (AHDI) as the exclusive
distributor in Latin America, Asia, Australasia and German-speaking Europe for
its 10×1-hour documentary series Real Football Factories: International.

The documentary series is based on The Real Football
Factories and is currently airing on Bravo
in the U.K. Real Football Factories: International—inspired by the successful feature film The
Football Factory starring Danny
Dyer—follows Dyer as he travels across Europe and South America to
provide viewers with an inside look at some of the world’s hardest and fiercest
football clubs and supporters. Each episode focuses on a particular country,
including Turkey, Argentina, Brazil, Italy, Poland, Holland, The Balkans and
Russia. The episodes include never-before-seen footage that range from
hooligans running amok inside stadiums to exclusive match-day access at vicious
derbies and interviews with some of the toughest people behind the beautiful
game.

“Football is more than a phenomenon around the
world—it’s a major part of life, reflecting the wider political,
economic, and cultural changes of modern times,” commented Robert Kennedy, the
executive VP of sales for AHDI. “This series immerses itself into a world
beyond the teams and matches, and creates a spectacular insiders’ view of
football…the good, the bad, and the ugly.”
