Onza Distribution has reached new deals for the Czech series Golden Swan, which has been sold to Global Series Network for SVOD in Canada and the U.S.

Onza Distribution also finalized a deal with Novelas+ TV, a CANAL+ channel in Poland. The period drama originally premiered on the SVOD platform Voyo and aired on TV Nova in early 2023 in the Czech Republic.

The series unfolds across a total of 56 episodes, divided into three seasons. The central setting of the story starts when the luxury department store Golden Swan opens its doors in Prague in 1939, on the very same day Nazi troops cross the Czechoslovak border.

Carlos Garde, managing director of Onza, said: “These sales confirm the international appeal of Golden Swan. It is a spectacular period drama with a high-level production. The series delivers a powerful and impactful story set against a historically rich backdrop with exceptional visual settings of Prague during the Second World War.”

Klára Follová, creative producer of TV Nova, added: “Golden Swan was the first period series produced by our television. It won the hearts of viewers not only with its fantastic sets and costumes but, above all, with its lifelike characters and plots. Although the story takes place on the threshold of the Second World War, the stories of our heroines and heroes spoke very intensely to the contemporary audience.”
