Entertainment to executive produce and distribute two new movies: Reflections
and Stevie.

The films will
be co-produced by Drimtim Entertainment, Gestmusic Endemol Spain and Antena 3

and aggressive friend, Stevie.

“Our agreement
with Drimtim marks a first for MarVista in the arena of European content
programming and we are extremely pleased to be working with them on these new
high-budget, top-quality titles,” said Szew. “Throughout the years Drimtim has
proven that they are able to deliver top-notch movies which have been
distributed by the major studios and licensed around the world.”

“This
agreement with MarVista is another sign of our growth at Drimtim,” added Manuel
Corbi, the president of Drimtim Entertainment. “We established Drimtim to be
innovative and unique within the Spanish audiovisual sector and the fact that
we have continued to produce TV movies that have been distributed around the
world is a testament to this. All of our hard work and dedication is clearly
reaping its reward as evidenced today in this agreement with such an
accomplished company on a worldwide level as MarVista.”
