MIPCOM Spotlight: Record TV

The soap opera Jesus, the newest project from Record TV, is being introduced to international buyers for the first time.

“Jesus continues the line of highly successful biblical productions in the national and international markets,” says Delmar Andrade, international sales director. “We are continuing with biblical stories that also include all the ingredients that a soap opera must have: passion, hatred, envy and solidarity,” he notes.

Moses and the Ten Commandments was Record TV’s “most important success of all time. The production had a great reception in the international market for being the first soap opera based on the Bible.” In Brazil, it is available on Netflix, and Record TV has closed further agreements around the world.

Other highlights from the company include The Rich and Lazarus and The Promised Land.
