Cineflix Rights prepares 100-hour lineup ahead of London TV Screenings
Cineflix Rights has unveiled its distribution lineup ahead of London TV Screenings next week, with a slate of more than 100 hours of new and returning scripted and unscripted programming.
Heading up its scripted Slate is So Long, Marianne, an 8 x 60-minute fact-based drama from Redpoint Productions, C3 Media, and Tanweer Productions that tells the love story between Canadian singer and poet Leonard Cohen and Marianne Ihlen.
The distributor is also bringing Wynonna Earp: Vengeance to market. The 1 x 90-minute special from Seven24 Films follows up the series following Wyatt Earp’s great-granddaughter as she battles demons and other supernatural beings.
Meanwhile, In Memoriam is an 8 x 60-minute French-language psychological thriller from Passez-Go and C3 Media, about a family torn apart as they battle for their father’s inheritance through taking part in a series of increasingly sinister challenges he has contrived.
Factual & returning titles
On the factual side, Cineflix Rights is presenting Amanda Owen’s Farming Lives (6 x 60-minutes) from Wise Owl Films, which follows Britain’s most famous shepherdess, best-selling author, and mother of nine as she criss-crosses some of the UK’s most breathtaking landscapes.
Police 999: Clear And Present Danger (6 x 60-minutes) from Crackit Productions, meanwhile, features raw bodycam footage captured in the line of duty.
Sue Perkins Into Alaska (3 x 60-minutes) for Chalkboard TV and GroupM Motion Entertainment, follows the comedian and TV presenter as she heads off the beaten track to explore the state’s rich history, culture, and communities.
Ainsley’s Taste of Malta (5 x 60-minutes) from Rock Oyster Media Productions follows chef Ainsley Harriott as he explores the culture and cuisine of a historic island paradise, while from the same prodco comes Jimmy’s Taste Of Florida (5 x 60-minutes) in which Jimmy Doherty takes a gastronomic tour of the Sunshine State.
These new titles join returning seasons of factual shows including Mayday: Air Disaster and The Yorkshire Auction House, as well as scripted series Reginald The Vampire, Last King Of The Cross and Whitstable Pearl.
