MIPCOM Spotlight: Band Contents Distribution

CANNES: Each of the highlight offerings from Band Contents Distribution provides a look at how life in Brazil really is, according to Elisa Ayub, the company’s director of international content.

Natália, for example, tells the story of a young, married girl from Rio de Janeiro who is given the opportunity to become a model when she turns 18. “Rio Negro shows the most beautiful landscapes around Rio Negro’s river, from the Amazon region to the rich histories from locals,” says Ayub. “Brazil: The Challenges of a Country You Don’t Know reveals Brazil’s great cultural variety, emphasizing that the country isn’t just samba and soccer.” Ayub adds, “We want to establish Band Contents Distribution, a division of Grupo Bandeirantes, as a major reference for international content distribution.”
