ROME – ZDF Enterprises is continuing its push into high-end international drama series by tapping into new territories, introducing two new projects at the MIA market on Thursday that were produced in Ukraine and the Netherlands., and “Echoes,” a 10 x 50’ crime drama produced by the Netherlands’ 2CFILM, represent the latest efforts by the German pubcaster to expand its slate of prestige drama content.
The series centers on a distant, guarded female inspector, played by Yulia Abdel Fattakh—an actress who Franke likened to a “Ukrainian Tilda Swinton.” Vyshnevska said that the actress’ striking but unconventional appearance made it difficult to get Ukrainian broadcasters on board. “If we didn’t have the backing of ZDF Enterprises…we would not be able to cast her,” she said.
“Echoes” was selected for MIA’s drama series pitching competition this week. Friedman acknowledged parallels to supernatural precursors like “X-Files” and “Stranger Things,” while adding that the series’ unique approach to contemporary European issues offered the chance for it to become an international hit.“Every once in a while, a show comes along that taps its way into the zeitgeist,” he said.
