MIPTV Spotlight: ABC Commercial

CANNES: From the makers of 72 Dangerous Animals Australia comes 72 Dangerous Places to Live, sold by ABC Commercial.

“The fascinating subject matter and the tight, well-paced episodes will appeal to factual buyers around the world,” says Sharon Ramsay-Luck, the head of sales and business development at ABC Commercial.

The company also has a new two-part drama, The Secret River, based on a novel by Kate Grenville. “The Secret River is compelling storytelling with stunning production values, and it deals in the universal themes of what makes and breaks a good person and the extremes people can [reach] to protect their families,” says Ramsay-Luck.

The one-hour doc Birthplace of the Giants, meanwhile, provides insight into the breeding season of humpback whales.
