"7 vs Wild"
Quintus Studios, the international factual content distributor and channel owner, has revealed a new line up of factual content available for international acquisition at this year’s MIPCOM. The company’s slate includes a wide ranging premium factual catalogue of both new Quintus Originals documentary series and ready-made series from German broadcaster WeltN24.
"7 vs Wild" (CaliVision Network GMBH) is a hit reality format developed by German YouTube producers Fritz Meinecke, Johannes Hovekamp and Max Kovacs and one of Germany’s biggest media successes of recent years. The show, originally shot for their YouTube channel, sends seven teams of fellow content creators and influencers into the wilderness with just seven basic items they have nominated - such as a sleeping bag, cigarette lighter or knife. Amazon Freevee has acquired the rights to broadcast all three seasons in Germany.
