Non-English drama streamer Walter Presents lands in New Zealand

Vanished By The Lake

Non-English language scripted streamer Walter Presents has come to New Zealand through state broadcaster TVNZ’s OnDemand service.

Effective immediately, with more than 250 hours of non-English language scripted content to be added over the next six months, the programming will be made exclusively available through a dedicated Walter Presents section on the TVNZ OnDemand homepage.

Walter Presents launched on UK broadcaster Channel 4’s streaming platform All 4 in 2016 and has since gone on to pass more than 100 millions views in the UK and also launch in Australia, Italy and the US.

Among the highlights of shows on offer to TVNZ viewers are Menuet Producties’ Belgian mystery series 13 Commandments, VARA’s Dutch thriller The Adulterer and Elephant Story and Solune Productions’ French crime drama Vanished By The Lake.

Walter Iuzzolino, co-founder and curator of Walter Presents, commented: “New Zealanders are renowned for their love of travel and their curiosity about the world, so I am really delighted and excited to offer a slice of so many different cultures for their enjoyment on-demand in the comfort of their own homes. TVNZ is one of the world’s most established and admired broadcasters and we’re truly thrilled to be partnering with them to make the very best international drama freely available to view anytime and anywhere.”
