MIPTV Spotlight: Terra Mater Factual Studios

CANNES: A top highlight for Terra Mater Factual Studios, David Attenborough’s Light on Earth explores the natural phenomenon of bioluminescence.

The company’s lineup also includes Brazil: A Natural History, which takes viewers on a journey through the country’s varied landscapes to see how animal species survive in different environments. Ostrich: Born to Run, meanwhile, offers insight into the world’s largest birds, venturing into the deserts of Namibia to see how ostriches are able to survive in such harsh conditions.

“By making use of new technologies, working with unusual perspectives and finding new angles of storytelling, we’re providing cutting-edge docs for the market,” says Sabine Holzer, Terra Mater’s head of television. “Our films captivate with compelling stories and stunning visuals, and for our company, blue-chip docs with unique visual concepts are king.”
