MIPCOM Spotlight: Caracol TV Internacional

CANNES: Two scripted series shot in 4K and spotlighting historic women are at the top of Caracol TV Internacional’s MIPCOM lineup.

Soul Sisters is the tale of siblings who fought to bring attention to the Colombian musical genre known as “la carrilera.” Using their voices, the singers managed to overcome obstacles and popularize the music. Meanwhile, Laura, an Extraordinary Life follows the mission of its titular heroine to defend the less fortunate at a time when women were not expected to contribute to public society.

“These stories are about courageous women who overcame adversities to fulfill their dreams,” says María Estrella, the company’s sales executive for Asia. They were produced “with the idea of inspiring international audiences, and we are certain that they will have plenty of success abroad.”

Estrella continues: “We have high expectations for MIPCOM as we have a diversified, attractive and complete portfolio that will definitely fulfill our clients’ demands.”
