MIPCOM Spotlight: Inter Medya

In the Inter Medya highlight The Trusted, ex-soldier Marashli’s life is turned upside down after meeting the beautiful Mahur Turel.

“The Trusted is produced by one of Turkey’s leading production companies, TIMS&B,” says Can Okan, founder and CEO of Inter Medya.

1441 Productions’ Scorpion centers on Perihan Emgen, who found success after clawing her way to the top—and abandoning her first daughter, Ferda, at the age of 1. When Ferda reveals who she is, a war begins between the long-lost daughter and mother, and Ferda seeks revenge by having an affair with her stepsister’s husband. The series “is a very successful Turkish drama,” notes Okan.

Respect “is a story that revolts against the daily acts of disrespect we choose to ignore, disregard or forget in the course of time,” Okan says. In the series, a psychopath obsessed with disrespect gets entangled with two lovers who go on a killing spree in Istanbul. “The notion of disrespect between two generations has turned into a media-based struggle,” Okan adds.
