NATPE Budapest Spotlight: Caracol Internacional

BUDAPEST: The White Slave, a 4K series that Caracol Internacional is offering at NATPE Budapest, uses the story of a woman raised by slaves to highlight issues of colonialism.

The series “is clear proof that combining great production values with an excellent story is the best way to capture audiences around the world,” says Paloma García, the company’s sales executive for Europe, the Middle East and Africa.

Among Caracol’s other new titles is The Girl, based on the real-life story of a child, recruited to fight for a guerrilla group, who has a hard time readjusting to normal life after escaping the conflict. Also on offer is Digging for Love, about two neighboring families who become enemies when a giant gold statue is found buried between their houses.

“Eastern Europe is a region where our productions continue to find success,” García says.
