AMC Networks International has bought four docuseries from MediaHub's factual library, including "Stop! Border Control Latam", "Stop! Border Control Cuba", "Stop! Border Control Roma", and "Latin American Hot Borders" for its European viewers. This multi-title, multi-territory agreement represents another step in the ongoing expansion of MediaHub's factual content library.
Following an agreement with RTL Germany last year, the "Stop! Border Control" series is now continuing to hit more screens throughout mainland Europe, while also generating renewed interest again at home in Latin America. In the original series, viewers are taken on rollercoaster rides alongside the viewpoint of the border security forces as they try to prevent real-life criminal activities spanning Brazil, Mexico, Colombia, Chile, Bolivia, and Peru.
"Stop! Border Control Roma" features Italian law enforcement officials faced with the same issues but this time within an historic European capital city renowned for illegal ventures.
"Stop! Border Control Cuba" offers an unprecedented look at the round-the-clock operations at Havana Airport, where for the first time, an international film crew captures Cuba’s security forces tackling drug trafficking, arms smuggling, money laundering, and forgery in high-stakes incidents.
Lastly, "Latin American Hot Borders" covers 35,000 kilometers across the land locked borders of Latin America, revealing actual stories of crime and tragedy, bringing to the fore an issue of recent years.
Elif Turna, Sales and Business Development Manager for Europe & Americas said of the deal, "As Mediahub we value a diverse catalogue. While we strive to build on our original scripted drama library, we also have strong partnerships in the factual genres space that allows us to penetrate different markets and answer a variety of demands. In this context it is a pleasure to have created a working path forward with one more major European player such as AMC".
