MIPTV Spotlight: ATRESMEDIA Televisión

CANNES: From comedies to dramas, ATRESMEDIA Televisión is showcasing a range of scripted content in Cannes, including the new comedy Finding True North.

In Finding True North, a brother and sister, tired of Spain’s unemployment situation, move to Berlin. However, their dreams quickly turn to nightmares there. Plastic Sea, meanwhile, is a crime thriller set in a town where greenhouses are the main source of income.

Also on the company’s slate is Locked Up, which tells the story of a fragile young girl who is confined in a women’s prison after her lover betrays her and she ends up convicted for fraud. “ATRESMEDIA’s series guarantee good stories, high-quality productions and strong characters [mixed] with a touching plot that will keep the audience engaged until the end,” says Diana Borbón, the sales manager for ATRESMEDIA.

Borbón continues: “Our aim is to reinforce our position as a reference point in Spanish fiction and to increase the presence of ATRESMEDIA’s series in the international market.”
