yes Studios Announces London TV Screenings Slate

yes Studios is bringing to the London TV Screenings a slate of new drama and comedy titles.

“The London TV Screenings has grown into an important event for distributors and buyers and represents a wonderful opportunity for us to showcase the breadth and depth of our current and upcoming content,” said Sharon Levi, managing director at yes Studios.

Leading the new slate is Brewing Trouble, which tells the story of Yuval, whose money worries force him to return to his desert hometown and his eccentric grandfather, Shmulik. Together, they start brewing moonshine and start an illegal business that turns into a hilarious partnership.

On Standby is a comedy-drama about Sagit, a 33-year-old security officer at the airport, who joins a writing class, where her cynical humor and buried dreams begin to surface, along with an unexpected chance at love.

Strangers, a new drama based on the best-selling novel On Her Own by Lihi Lapid, follows 17-year-old Nina, who, in a bid to escape certain death after witnessing a murder, seeks refuge with 78-year-old Carmela, a disoriented woman who mistakes Nina for her own granddaughter.

Dark comedy Little Fucker follows 12-year-old Shay, an outcast in his family and at school, as he discovers his father’s secret affair and begins blackmailing him, turning the family dynamics upside down.

Season two of the romantic comedy series Bloody Murray follows best friends Dana and Murray as they continue on their hope-filled mission to grab life before it grabs them.

Children in the Woods, a dark psychological thriller about Ami, an Israeli investigator who uncovers an international syndicate trafficking newborn babies, and Audrey, a Spanish investigator with whom she joins forces to track the movements of mothers and children across both countries and through the Darknet.

“As people have come to expect from yes Studios, we have some gripping, edge-of-seat dramas to talk about, such as Strangers, alongside several new comedies that range from the sharply characterized Brewing Trouble to the darkly funny Little Fucker,” added Levi. “The screening event will also allow us to share our ideas around scripted formats—something which we have done successfully in recent years—and shine a light on those new titles that we feel are particularly ripe for international adaptations.”
