MIPCOM Spotlight: Audiovisual from Spain

The Audiovisual from Spain pavilion will host more than 30 exhibitors with hundreds of new hours of scripted series, movies, entertainment formats, animated shows, documentaries and TV services, including 4K channels.

Among the titles for the market is The Pier, a Movistar+/Telefónica original in collaboration with Atresmedia Studios. The drama will have its World Premiere TV Screening in the Grand Auditorium.

“Spanish fiction and drama series are really hot properties now because they have proven the undeniable talent and expertise of scriptwriters and producers” from the country, says Javier Martínez, the film and TV promotion manager at ICEX Spain Trade and Investment.

The dating show Forever or Never comes from Mediapro and Phileas Productions, while Wild Stories is presenting the 4K doc series Wild Hunters.

“Buyers are convinced of Spanish content’s ability to attract audiences,” says Martínez.
