Series Mania Forum\u2019s Co-Pro Pitching Sessions\u2019 jury has selected the Ukrainian-Polish thriller Unspoken<\/em> as its 2023 winner.<\/p>\n

Chosen out of 15 projects, Unspoken<\/em> is based on a true story and centers on a man who is trying to save his wife and three kids from the grave danger of the Russian invasion. It is produced by Ukraine\u2019s Toy Cinema and 2Brave Productions and Poland\u2019s Match&Spark.<\/p>\n

Unspoken was written by Zhanna Ozirna and Filip Syczy\u0144ski and produced by Dmytro Sukhanov, Natalia Libet and Anna Ro\u017calska, who were awarded a prize of \u20ac50,000 ($53,800).<\/p>\n

The jury of this year\u2019s Co-Pro Pitching Sessions consisted of Caroline Hollick, head of drama at Channel 4; Michele Zatta, commissioning editor at Rai; Fran\u00e7oise Guyonnet, executive managing director of TV series at STUDIOCANAL; Jarmo Lampela, head of drama at Yle; and Lindsey Martin, VP of development and co-productions at CBS Studios International.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe winning project united the judges unanimously with the raw, emotional intensity of the storytelling,\u201d Hollick said. \u201cThe powerful, relatable tale of a father prepared to go to any lengths to save his family was a bold and original take on the most urgent subject matter of our time.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Co-Pro Pitching Sessions are one of the most anticipated part of the Series Mania Forum, and we are delighted to be giving the \u20ac50,000 prize to Unspoken,\u201d added Laurence Herszberg, founder and general director of Series Mania. \u201cWe are extremely pleased that our illustrious jury chose to give the award to a Ukrainian project, which is very much connected with what is going on in Ukraine today. And despite this war, Ukraine, its creators and its culture is still very much alive and another reason to admire the courage of the Ukrainian people.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
