Boutique co-producer and distributor About Premium Content (APC) has secured a raft of sales with key global broadcasters for its new award-winning drama series "Man in Room 301" (6x45’).

The BBC (UK), ARTE (France and Germany), MHZ (USA), NPO (Netherlands), SBS (Australia), RTBF (Belgium), Rialto (New Zealand), Proximus (Belgium) and RTP (Portugal), have all taken rights to the series which has also just been nominated for four prestigious Golden Venla Awards in Finland for Best Drama, Best Director, Best Actress, and Best Actor.

Produced by Warner Bros. International Television Production Finland and the UK’s Wall to Wall Media, the six-part psychological thriller is written by the UK’s award-winning Kate Ashfield ("Born to Kill", "Shaun of the Dead") and directed by Finland’s Mikko Kuparinen for Elisa Viihde.

Shot in Finnish, "Man in Room 301" weaves between the past and present to tell the story of the Kurtti family, whose lives are irrevocably changed when two-year-old Tommi is killed by a gunshot. Whilst on their family holiday in Greece 12 years later, they come across a man that looks just like the boy’s alleged killer. Gripping, fast-paced, and tense, the series keeps the audience on edge until the final reveal.

Laurent Boissel and Emmanuelle Guilbart, Joint-CEOs and Co-Founders at APC, say: “'Man in Room' 301 is a gripping and fast paced family drama that will thrill audiences worldwide. Securing a roster of such key broadcaster with a wide geographic spread is testament to the universality of Kate Ashfield’s storyline and characters which are proving to have global appeal.”
