has closed a deal with Barcelona-based sales company Filmax for first window rights on “The Miramar Murders: The State vs Pablo Ibar” for Spain and Portugal, just before the true crime series world premieres at the San Sebastian Festival., which co-produced alongside San Sebastian company Irusoin, “The Miramar Murders” is a six-part doc-series examining the exceptional circumstances of a now 25-year-long legal battle surrounding a triple homicide in Miami in 1994.
Spaniard Pablo Ibar was eventually charged and convicted of the murders, and later sentenced to death. In 2016, a judge ordered the case to be retried, citing a lack of evidence and due process the first time around. Following the decision, Ibar’s faced the daunting task of raising more than a million dollars to cover his legal expenses.
“We’re delighted that the series is going to be released in Spain and Portugal by HBO Europe, one of the most prestigious names in global television,” said Ivan Diaz, Filmax head of international sales. He added: “This is a great series, on a par with some of the best true-crime series ever made and we’re sure that it will travel extremely well outside Spain as well. At the end of the day, it’s also an American story, a Latin story and a show with many layers.
