Ahead of Cannes Mipcom confab, Beta Film has closed a string of major deals on six premium series from Central Eastern Europe, a proof of the region’s fast transformation into a prime destination for multi-territory players such as HBO, Canal+ and Walter Presents, hungry for culturally-specific stories with global potential. Meanwhile the Ukrainian war drama “In Her Car,“ sold earlier to Japan, Latvia, the Czech Republic, and Slovakia, secured fresh deals with RTE for Ireland and Canal+ for Austria, Poland, Hungary, the Netherlands and Romania. Besides those titles, the Munich-based leading indie distributor Beta Film will be bringing to Mipcom a large slate of scripted content for all ages, led by the epic “Rise of the Raven,” due to world premiere in the Grand Auditorium Oct. 22.
