European distributor Global Screen, a Telepool brand, acquired worldwide distribution rights (excluding German speaking territories) for four-part documentary “Jan Ullrich - The Hunted,” which is available on Prime Video in Germany, Austria and Switzerland.

“The Hunted” (4x45’) documents the personal journey of Germany's only Tour de France winner Jan Ullrich. For the first time, Ullrich speaks candidly about his greatest triumph, the doping scandal that ended his career, and his dark descent into drug abuse. This series is directed by multi award-winning Sebastian Dehnhardt, and produced by Susanne Laermann and Jan Klophaus, all part of the creative team at Constantin Dokumentation.

“We are extremely pleased to have acquired ‘Jan Ullrich - The Hunted.’ Factual programming based on real-life events in the world of major sports continue to have broad appeal to international audiences. With high production values, this unique series tells a fascinating story in a very engaging style. We look forward to offering it to our clients,”  said Ulrike Schroeder, Co-Head International Sales and Acquisitions (TV) at Global Screen.

“Jan Ullrich is undoubtedly one of the greatest and most important German athletes of the past decades. We have been delighted to be able to show his story – the whole story – unfiltered and exclusively to our Prime Video viewers in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. The feedback from the audience and the press has been overwhelming, and we are sure that this moving documentary will also captivate viewers worldwide,”  added Andreas Hartmann, Head of Content at Prime Video Germany.
