TVF International is bringing a second season of Untold Arctic Wars to MIPCOM.

The first revealed the Arctic’s role in World War II, and the new season examines the global distribution of power and fight for land in the Arctic region during the Cold War years. “With backing from a consortium of Nordic pubcasters, the series is exactly the sort of high-end, premium factual [that] travels globally, and the story it tells is of truly international importance,” says Sam Joyce, senior acquisitions manager.

The Waves That Changed Us: The Indian Ocean Tsunami 20 Years On examines how the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami, which devastated communities across Asia, has had a lasting impact that still reverberates today. Japan’s Wild Side tells the story of Japan’s wildlife across all four seasons.

“We are incredibly proud of the slate we have assembled this year, which represents best-in-class factual projects,” adds Joyce.
