NEW ACQUISITIONS
The family drama "Watch Over Me" (6x60') produced by Pamplemousse Media is one of the new series. The lives of a grandmother and her four-year-old grandson are turned upside down when the boy's mother returns to take him back after abandoning him three years earlier.
In the Police Procedural Comedy "Playing Both Sides" (12x30') produced by Jumelage Productions, two talented, but out-of-work North African actors are recruited by a Detective Lieutenant to be part of a secret undercover division.

In the Educational Content "About Sex" (35x7') from Echo Media young people are inundated with images and messages about their bodies, sexuality and relationships. This series that was made for them explores topics from consent to pornography addiction, through skits, expert advice and teen testimonials.
