TV Real takes a look at the factual content deals that made headlines at MIPCOM last week.<\/em><\/p>\n

Speaking to reporters as MIPCOM wound down last week, RX France\u2019s Lucy Smith revealed early plans for MIPTV, set to return to Cannes from April 17 to 19, 2023. Like last year\u2019s market, MIPTV 2023 will see MIPDoc running parallel to the event<\/a> rather than on the weekend before.<\/p>\n

\u201cLast April, we did deliver on that promise of a more productive and concentrated market,\u201d said Smith. \u201cWe\u2019re growing again. Doc and factual will lead that growth. We\u2019ve heard the message from the industry. We\u2019ve rethought MIPDoc, which will be at the heart of MIPTV to become the annual international platform in Cannes for documentary and factual programming launches.\u201d MIPDoc will feature \u201can even more comprehensive program, incorporating kids\u2019 factual as well as the new international factual and documentary showcase, a producers hub and screenings library,\u201d Smith added.<\/p>\n

In addition, Canneseries, which is returning for a sixth season from April 14 to 19, 2023, will feature its first international documentary series competition<\/a>. \u201cWhether the main character is sport, history, a crime, a celebrity, the environment or a changing society, it is always about telling stories,\u201d said Albin Lewi, artistic director of Canneseries. \u201cAnd Canneseries, which promotes serial writing in all its forms, had to highlight this narration of reality.\u201d<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, MIPCOM proved to be a busy week for those in the factual community, with some of the segment\u2019s biggest players announcing several significant deals. Of note, BBC Studios closed a raft of international sales for its Natural History Unit\u2019s landmark series <\/a>Frozen Planet II<\/em><\/a>, announcing agreements with Movistar+, Mediaset, Nine, SVT and more. BBC Studios also renewed its multigenre agreement with ABC in Australia<\/a>, with factual content a key part of the alliance, including the latest titles from documentary-maker Louis Theroux and physicist Professor Brian Cox and the forthcoming documentary series Frida<\/em>.<\/p>\n

BossaNova Media closed a string of global sales for various series from the <\/a>Border Force<\/em><\/a> and <\/a>Border Patrol<\/em><\/a> franchises<\/a>. \u201cIt\u2019s clear that audiences worldwide are fascinated by the lives and work of those on the frontline of where our borders meet,\u201d said Holly Cowdery, head of sales at BossaNova. \u201cLuckily for us, the stories are infinite and never fail to entertain and surprise. Hats off too to Greenstone and Stampede for producing such fascinating, solid and, importantly, returning programming.\u201d<\/p>\n

Global Screen landed several slots for the documentary <\/a>Munich \u201972<\/em><\/a>, a co-production with Sipur (formerly Tadmor Entertainment) and Israel\u2019s Channel 8, marking the 50th anniversary of the slaughter of Israeli athletes by Palestinian terrorists at the 1972 Munich Summer Olympic Games. The doc was picked up by Poland\u2019s Canal+, Italy\u2019s La 7, Slovenia\u2019s RTV and Spain\u2019s Filmin, with more deals in the works.<\/p>\n

GRB Studios closed a round of deals for <\/a>Untold Stories of the ER<\/em><\/a> and <\/a>On the Case<\/em><\/a>, while Discovery UK licensed season three of Death Walker<\/em> featuring Nick Groff.<\/p>\n

In new content news, Autentic said it had partnered with Monaco\u2019s public broadcaster MCR TV to produce the documentary <\/a>Monaco Explorations<\/em><\/a>, focusing on scientists researching remote marine environments around the world. Zee Plus, the co-production and development arm of Zee Entertainment Enterprises, said it is working on The Lion\u2019s Last Roar<\/em><\/a>, its latest co-production with Talesmith<\/a>. Lionsgate entered a first-look deal with producers Karis Jagger and Fabienne Toback, best known for their work on <\/a>High on the Hog<\/em><\/a>. FilmRise revealed it is working with Zig Zag Productions on <\/a>The Interrogation Room<\/em><\/a>, hosted by Vivica A. Fox. Guinness World Records (GWR) launched GWR Studios<\/a>, which will lead the creative development, production and output of content for the brand.<\/p>\n
