MIPTV Spotlight: Cineflix Rights

CANNES: Commemorating the 50th anniversary of the assassination of John F. Kennedy is the one-hour special The Day Kennedy Died, which Cineflix Rights is offering at MIPTV.

It retraces JFK’s steps hour by hour in the lead-up to his death. “JFK’s assassination was one of the pivotal moments in recent history, a source of perennial fascination and conspiracy theories and, as such, of interest to audiences worldwide,” says Chris Bonney, the CEO of rights at Cineflix Media. The company is also offering Trauma Investigators, which follows an elite team of doctors as they conduct on-the-spot investigations. There’s a second season of Copper as well. Bonney says that given the success of season one in the international market, there are high expectations for the show’s sophomore run.
