All3media distributes “The Anti-vax conspiracy” across the globe

All3Media International has distributed the feature-length documentary "The Anti-Vax Conspiracy" to various new territories worldwide. “As the pandemic continues to impact us all, this deep dive into the anti-vaccination movement has been in strong demand from our clients, as reflected in this wide range of deals,” Rachel Job, SVP Non-Scripted Content at All3Media International, said. “Offering an in-depth investigation into one of the most important stories of our times, delivered by a team of award-winning creatives, The Anti-Vax Conspiracy presents 360-degree coverage, thorough research, and dramatic capture of emotions, and we know these qualities will make it a must-watch film as it rolls out around the world.”

Produced by Caravan and Quicksilver Media for Channel 4, UK, and Arte, France, the award-winning special, which is directed by acclaimed filmmaker Colette Camden, has been acquired by SVOD BBC Select in North America. In the Asia Pacific region, rights to The Anti-Vax Conspiracy have been secured by Now TV for Hong Kong and Public Television Service (PTS) for Taiwan. Flora Bagenal produces the documentary, and executive producers are BAFTA and RTS Award winner Dinah Lord and BAFTA and Emmy Award winner Eamonn Matthews.

Several European deals also feature in this new round of sales – discovery+ has acquired rights to the special for Italian-speaking territories, and acquisitions have been signed with NRK in Norway, Sýn hf in Iceland, DPG Media in Belgium, CANAL + Polska in Poland, RTV Slovenija in Slovenia and Eesti Rahvusringhääling in Estonia. These latest sales follow the previously announced pan-territory deal for The Anti-Vax Conspiracy with HBO Max in Latin America. The documentary, which recently won the AIB award for Investigative Documentary TV and Video and was nominated for a Realscreen Award – was commissioned by Channel 4 in the UK and Arte in France.

Combining a globally resonant story with a forensically detailed investigation into the anti-vaccination movement, the 90’ film explores the origins and growth of the anti-vaccination movement and its impact on global efforts to defeat the Covid-19 pandemic. Exploring some of its more disturbing activities and featuring interviews with leading experts on the anti-vaccination movement, some of its leading proponents, and parents on both sides of the battle, the documentary sheds new light on a growing organization spreading fear and chaos that cannot be ignored.
