ZED Ties Up with Producer Mona Lisa

PARIS: ZED has signed a deal to handle the international distribution for recent documentaries from the production company Mona Lisa.

ZED will be representing a catalogue of more than 80 hours of docs from Mona Lisa. Titles include Urine Superpowers, Life in Hell, Aliens of the Amazon and the collections The Inner Adventure: From Kiss to Baby, Faithful Polygamists and Gay or Straight, Is It a Choice?

Manuel Catteau, the president of ZED, said: “The outstanding quality of Mona Lisa’s catalogue means our sales force will be able to meet our clients’ growing demand for high-end documentaries, especially in the scientific field. Beyond a simple sales mandate, this partnership also illustrates the wishes of two companies sharing the same values and the same approach to content to combine their expertise to boost their presence on the international market and strengthen the independence of production.”

Thierry Berrod, the president of Mona Lisa, said: “Our aim is to maximize our revenues on programs which have proved themselves with major international broadcasters, but which must be made profitable across all media windows, and in all territories, which is precisely the strength and expertise of ZED.”
