MIPCOM Spotlight: Federation Entertainment

CANNES: Since launching the dramas The Break and Bordertown at MIPTV, Federation Entertainment reports that both titles have generated “a lot of interest” from global buyers.

“The Break was an unprecedented hit in Belgium and has had strong runs in Switzerland and France,” says Jean-Michel Ciszewski, the head of international sales at Federation Entertainment. “We are in the process of finalizing several deals worldwide on this series and still have a few territories open.”

Ciszewski is equally optimistic about the sales prospects for the Finnish crime series Bordertown. “We still have a few territories left that we intend to finalize at MIPCOM,” he says. “We are also extremely happy with the momentum that our spy thriller The Bureau has been experiencing lately. We secured massive sales worldwide.”

“We want to stay ahead of the game when it comes to high-end content that has international appeal and sophistication,” says Ciszewski.
