MIPCOM Spotlight: Azteca

CANNES: Girls Only, an Azteca telenovela, tells the story of Valentina Bravo and her three daughters, all wealthy and privileged women whose sheltered world falls apart with the death of their patriarch.

Left with an exorbitant debt, they open and manage a strip club for women. “The four intrepid women soon learn about and discover love, finding themselves and becoming independent,” says Marcel Vinay, the CEO of Comarex, which distributes titles for Azteca.

Un escenario para el amor is another novela Vinay believes will appeal to MIPCOM buyers, along with the reality show and entertainment format I’m Your Double.

“[I’m Your Double will see] 12 male and 12 female celebrities battle it out to imitate well-known singers and become their lookalikes,” Vinay comments.
