ROBUST CONTENT PIPELINE

Unrivalled Slate of German Content

Scripted:

DER SCHEICH. The award-winning filmmaker Dani Levy tells the story of a 
one-of-a-kind con artist. In eight episodes, family man Ringo (Björn Meyer) 
reinvents himself and conquers the Zurich financial world as the illegitimate 
son of a billionaire Arab dynasty - with nothing but a bunch of fanciful 
stories and a fake bank statement for $8 billion. Ringo's wife Carla (Petra 
Schmidt-Schaller) simultaneously gets caught up in a dangerous web of lies, 
money and greed herself.

Sixth season of SPOTLIGHT the successful Nickelodeon series about the talented 
acting, dancing, and singing students at the Berlin School of Arts. In this 
season, the familiar cast grows to include new students and is supported as 
always by guest stars from TV, music, and the world of influencers, such as 
singers Lotte and Madeline Juno, TikTok stars JulesBoringLife and Twenty4Tim, 
and entrepreneur, choreographer and author Nikeata Thompson.

SIMON BECKETT'S CHEMISTRY OF DEATH (January 2023), a gripping crime series 
based on the acclaimed best-selling novels about forensic anthropologist Dr. 
David Hunter. Hunter, who gave up his police career after a stroke of fate, is 
looking for peace and quiet as a family doctor in the English countryside. But 
when a body is discovered in the woods, the local police ask him to help. The 
British-German cast includes Harry Treadaway as Dr. David Hunter, German-French 
actress Jeanne Goursaud and German actor Hardy Krüger Jr.

The eco-cyber thriller series A THIN LINE (early 2023) revolves around young 
twin sisters Anna (Saskia Rosendahl) and Benni (Hanna Hilsdorf), who use all 
digital tools at their disposal to bring crimes against the environment to 
light. When their hack into a government server leads to a police raid, the 
introverted Anna is arrested while the charismatic Benni disappears. Shortly 
after, Anna receives a visit from the head of a police unit (Peter Kurth) 
against cybercrime. When he reveals to her that Benni is part of a radical new 
terrorist group that is carrying out violent attacks against politicians and 
businesses, Anna must decide which side to take.

The series KOHLRABENSCHWARZ (in 2023) based on the mystery audiodrama series of 
the same name. Actor Michael Kessler, who came up with the idea together with 
author Tommy Krappweis, again takes on the lead role of newly divorced 
psychologist Stefan Schwab, who has retreated to the tranquil foothills of the 
Alps. But contrary to his plans, he finds no peace, as all of a sudden ancient 
legends seem to have awakened there: Children disappear, "sinners" are 
murdered, archaic legends come true.
