MUMBAI: US-based network provider Olympusat has acquired exclusive TV and digital rights for Latin America, Puerto Rico, the US and Canada for three Ukrainian romance dramas produced by Media Group Ukraine, following a deal with global distributor GoQuest Media.

The deal sees Eclipse (8 x 45-minutes), Secrets (95 x 45-minutes) and Rainflower (8 x 45-minutes) all picked up by the US company.

Produced by Tri-ya-da production (Ukraine), Secrets explores hidden family secrets that tests the love and strength of Katya and Mykola, who have known and loved each other since childhood.

Eclipse, meanwhile, follows Sergie’s one-sided love as it turns to obsession when he meets his childhood crush, Svetlana, after 20 years. The series is directed by Anton Azarov and produced by Irina Zarya.

Rainflower is an adaptation of the Korean drama Tree of Heaven. Produced by Mamas Film Production (Ukraine) it is a coming-of-age adolescent tale of two stepsiblings, Nina and Andrey, who fall deeply and passionately in love with each other.

GoQuest Media Europe and North America head Paula McHarg said, “These compelling Ukrainian romance dramas explore themes of love, romance, and optimism — underscored by tragic components — which makes them out of the ordinary and inspiring. We are thrilled to conclude our first package deal with Olympusat and bring these diverse stories to brand new audiences.”

“Our mission in creating Olympusat TV platforms has always been to deliver the best of the best in entertainment content, and we are excited to add these three series, featuring dramatic characters that are proven winners and that audiences will love,” added Olympusat content acquisitions & strategy VP John Baghdassarian.
