Autentic Distribution to represent DBcom Media's "The Sum of All Cities"

Autentic Distribution has acquired the worldwide distribution rights to "The Sum of All Cities," produced by Canadian production company DBcom Media ("Overbooked"). The eight-episode series is currently in production and is expected to be completed by fall 2025.

“The Sum of All Cities” extrapolates, investigates and connects the numbers that make up the cities. Population, cost of living, crime rate, area size, death and birth rate, temperature, GDP… These are the types of numbers that typically define the cities, but there are so many other numbers that tell so many more interesting stories: the number of lightbulbs, the number of CCTV cameras, the number of pebblestones, the number of native animal species or the amount of cocaine found in the wastewater. This new documentary series is a fascinating and fast-paced tour around the world.

Mirjam Strasser, Head of Sales and Acquisitions at Autentic, said: "We are excited to bring this captivating series to a global audience. DBcom Media is creating a visually stunning factual series that will shed light on the fascinating dynamics of urban life. 'The Sum of All Cities' is not just about numbers; it's about the human experiences and stories that these numbers represent."

Meredith Fowke, Series Producer and Writer at DBcom Media, added: "'The Sum of All Cities' really is a new twist on exploring the places that most of us call home. Wherever you live in the world, there are layers and layers to peel back that reveal numbers that are so much more than just statistics. These numbers are all around us, most of us just don’t put 2 and 2 together. So we’re doing the math to bring those intriguing, defining and relatable stories to you. We are thrilled that Autentic also sees the singularity of this new series and is as excited as we are to share it with the world."
