CANNES: Sullivan Entertainment is promoting more than 200 hours of classic programming restored from the original negatives to high definition.

The slate includes 93 episodes of the Emmy-winning show Road to Avonlea, as well as 67 episodes of Wind at My Back. The latter title is set in a prosperous mining town and chronicles the Bailey clan and their struggle to overcome the challenges of poverty and family rivalry during the 1930s.

Sullivan Entertainment is also offering a lineup of period and family movies, plus documentaries such as Out of the Shadows. “There is something in our inventory for any broadcaster looking to program high-quality co-viewing drama, period movies or series, and family and children’s series,” says Olga Shutina, the manager of sales and acquisitions at Sullivan Entertainment.

Shutina continues: “Sullivan has an extensive library of truly evergreen titles that now look more spectacular than ever in HD.”
