"Six Empty Seats"
"Six Empty Seats", a Russian TV series by 1-2-3 Production and producers Valeriy Fedorovich and Evgeniy Nikishov directed by Petr Todorovsky Jr., was honored with the Best TV Series at the Ser!alK!ller international TV and online series festival that ended in the Czech Republic on September 27, 2020.
"Six Empty Seats" is a psychological drama series directed by Petr Todorovsky Jr., starring Nikita Efremov, Oksana Akinshina, Pavel Tabakov, Yuliya Khlynina, Mikhail Efremov, and Evgeniya Dobrovolskaya. The series revolves around a group of employees in a construction company that decided to turn their lives around after miraculously avoiding dying in a plane crash. Thus, they challenge themselves and one another to face their fears.
Ser!alK!ller is an ambitious festival with a unique goal of turning the world's attention to the great potential of creators from Central and Eastern Europe that have been actively gaining popularity in recent years, producing works that later become great hits on platforms such as Netflix, Amazon, HBO and others.
For example, Amazon Prime purchased the rights for the Russian project "Gogol" which itself was an entry in the main competition of the first Ser!alK!ller festival, and another competitor in the 2018 festival, the Polish TV series "Ultraviolet" was added to Netflix two months after its premiere at the festival in Brno.
Apart from the hits from Central and Eastern Europe, Ser!alK!ller's program for this season included works such as the British series "White House Farm", starring Stephen Graham, and "Laetitia", a new drama by Oscar winner Juan-Xavier de Lestrade that was first premiered at the Sundance Film Festival.
