Financing an audiovisual project, regardless of its scale, is one of the biggest problems today. Including brands from an early stage in projects, as an alternative form of financing, seems to be a solution that must be attended. Is branded content or product placement the only way to attract them? Should we think about content taking these companies into account from the very beginning? How to integrate them organically into our content, both fiction and non-fiction?

IP is a concept that has been reconverted in recent years, becoming the center of attention and a fundamental part of monetization and the race to grab the audience's attention. But, what happens when a brand or a person is an IP in itself, how can a project be thought of in an innovative way, addressing new technologies or ways of distribution? Licensing, branding, innovation, all to be discussed and discovered.

While scripted content keeps growing, there’s a new boom brought by platforms in documentaries and factual content taking advantage of lower production costs and the chance of focusing on real stories that can connect well with audiences. But how do we know what content is on the rise and can be relevant for a platform today? Realities, documentaries, entertainment formats and even live content, what are platforms and PayTV signals looking for in this line-up?

Young audiences seem to be turning away from traditional TV and some even from streaming services, because of not having paid media or getting lost in the sea of offers. New platforms have started to gain territory in the fight for their attention in recent years: live streaming services and audio platforms. But how do they monetize, what content do they seek, can there be synergies between traditional content and these platforms, and what are their strategies for capturing users' attention?

Farah

Presented by Calinos Entertainment

Wednesday 20 November, 19.00

Adapted from the award-winning Argentinian series "La Chica Que Limpia," Farah follows the story of an Iranian woman who flees her homeland and struggles to survive in Istanbul as a cleaning lady to fund her son's medical treatment. Once a top medical student in Iran, Farah's life was derailed when her family was destroyed by the rejection of a man she loved, forcing her to escape to Turkey, unaware she was pregnant. Seven years later, Farah works to support her son, Kerim, who suffers from a rare immune disorder, requiring him to live in a sterile environment. One night, Farah witnesses a mafia murder and, in a desperate bid for survival, cleans the crime scene flawlessly, her only way out. The next day, Farah learns the victim was a policeman, a close friend of her neighbor Gonul and her brother, Chief Inspector Mehmet. Determined to testify, she heads to the police station, only to encounter Tahir, the hitman, now in custody. Fleeing in fear, she decides to leave the country but fate intervenes when she saves a man in the hospital, unaware he's mafia leader Ali Galip, Tahir’s boss. This act thrusts her into the heart of a mafia-police war and an unlikely romance with Tahir. As the season progresses, Farah, Tahir, and Kerim form a makeshift family, defying all odds. However, in season two, their love faces an even greater test when Behnam, Kerim’s presumed-dead father, arrives in Istanbul to reclaim his "family."

Manía de Ti

Presented by GLOBO

Showcase & Breakfast
Thursday 21 November, 7.45

The story begins with the ambiguous relationship between friends Viola and Luma, who seem destined to enter each other’s lives in a literal way. Born on the same day in very different circumstances, they meet again years later, connected by coincidences that go beyond their shared birthday. From humble beginnings, Viola moves with her boyfriend, Mavi, to Angra dos Reis, where Luma lives a life of luxury and dates Rudá, who eventually meets Viola by chance. This marks the start of the duo’s journey, moving from a shared passion for recipes to an obsession with the same man, from an instant connection to living each other’s reality a decade later. It’s a journey split between complicity and rivalry, drawing them into a love quadrangle and marked by a series of twists, turns, and surprises—like the secret surrounding a murder.
