About Premium Content (APC) has secured new international broadcasters for season one of the Belgian political drama "Pandore". New partners for season one of the 10 x 52’ thriller include SBS in Australia, Walter Presents in the UK and Ireland, MHZ in the US and Canada and TELUS Presents in Canada. Previous sales for the series include AMC Networks International Southern Europe for Spain and Portugal, RTP2 in Portugal, NPO in the Netherlands, Yle in Finland, Stod 2 in Iceland, TV5 in Canada and Viaplay in Sweden, Norway and Denmark.

"Pandore" is produced by Artemis Productions for RTBF, and co-directed and co-written by Savina Dellicour, Anne Coesens and Vania Leturcq. APC handles worldwide distribution rights for the series. In 2022, RTBF commissioned a second season of the hit drama which is currently in development and set to air in 2024.

Walter Presents says: “Crime and politics converge in this taut, unmissable and highly addictive Belgian thriller – the series offers a very current take on the distortion of truth for personal gain and political power, this is authored Belgian television at its best.”

Laurent Boissel and Emmanuelle Guilbart, Joint-CEOs and Co-Founders at APC, said: “We are continuing to secure robust broadcast partners around the globe for this original, gripping political thriller, full of twists and turns, which resonates so much with today's world. The first season of 'Pandore' has broken ratings records, and we are sure audiences are as excited as we are for the highly-anticipated second season in 2024.”

The French-language political thriller tells the story of the conflictual relationship between a politician and an investigating judge. While the Belgian conservative party’s campaign is disrupted by a corruption investigation, the rape of a young woman brings together four very different characters: an investigating judge, a politician, an activist and a journalist. Each of them will defend their own truth.
