“Eastern and Central Europe (CEE market) are strategic territories for Globo and our presence in these three events reflects this and the understanding of the particularities of each micro-region. We have a long history with this market, for instance, HRT in Croatia broadcasts at least one of our telenovelas annually and BTV Bulgaria recently acquired content such as 'Never Give Up' and 'Pantanal'. Moving to a neighboring region, the Public TV Company of Armenia premiered 'Pantanal' not long ago and showed titles such as 'A Life Worth Living' and 'All The Flowers', with great performances. We have a vast portfolio of telenovelas, series and documentaries that show our production capacity and how our variety of productions can meet different needs in a market that is undergoing a major transformation,” commented Guilherme Jordão.
Recently released on the international market during the LA Screenings, the telenovela "Rebirth" and the series "Justice: Misconduct" are some of the highlights of Globo’s portfolio. Currently airing in prime time in Brazil, "Rebirth" is based on the 1993 work by Benedito Ruy Barbosa, written by his grandson Bruno Luperi, with artistic direction by Gustavo Fernández, same team as “Pantanal”, a content that has already been licensed for 130 territories.
