MIPCOM Spotlight: Tele München International

CANNES: An emotional roller coaster is how Michael Oesterlin, the executive VP of international sales at Tele München Group, describes the mini-series The Other Wife.

“We expect more than the usual interest in our high-quality drama mini-series The Other Wife due to the outstanding cast,” Oesterlin says. Rupert Everett stars alongside Natalia Wörner and John Hannah in the two-part romantic drama.

Tele München International is offering the title alongside the 18-part wildlife documentary series Cosmos, produced by the acclaimed director Kurt Mündl. “Selected episodes are available in 3D, which is a clear additional value in this kind of genre, as you feel like being a personal witness to the daily life of nature,” says Oesterlin. He also highlights the strengths of the one-hour series Flashpoint. “Flashpoint is a universally loved police thriller that brings a human element to the men and women on the front line on the war on crime. With 75 episodes, it has proven to be a blue-chip property for CBS and ION [in the U.S.] and CTV in Canada, with sales to over 100 territories internationally.”
